Description

These almshouses were designed by architect George Hubbard for the Ironmongers' Company to replace some on Kingsland Road in London. The photograph, one of a set taken for G & A Brown, shows them at the time of their completion. The buildings were subsequently acquired by Greater London Council and have been re-named Geffery's Court.
