Description

The Bedford Lemere daybook notes Henry Percy Adams as this building's architect, whereas other sources credit Charles Henry Holden, but since the two architects were in a practice together from 1907, it is likely that they collaborated on this building. The sculptures on the exterior were by Jacob Epstein, and the photograph was commissioned by the British Medical Association.
