St Vincent's Works is a former factory and offices on Silverthorne Lane in Bristol, built in 1891 as a commission from Thomas Royse Lysaght for his brother John Lysaght's iron manufacturing company. Completed by architect R Milverton Drake, the structure exemplifies the Bristol Byzantine style and features distinctive Gothic Revival elements, including a domed atrium adorned with golden Doulton tiles, wood panelling, and elaborate decorative detailing throughout. The site, previously occupied by Acraman and Company, supported the production of corrugated iron and pre-fabricated buildings exported globally—by 1878 the factory employed 400 men and produced 1,000 tons of galvanised iron sheet monthly. The Grade II* listed building later housed the headquarters of renewable energy consultancy GL Garrad Hassan and has been leased to film production company Screenology since January 2018.
