Description

Photographer's note: 'Built in 1931-2 by James J.S Naylor as offices and a film store for Warner Bros. It later housed British Pathe and Columbia. The building was designed to incorporate as much glazing as the building act allowed, metal windows with stone borders and triplets of canted metal bows with fluted panels between them. Wardour street was the centre of the British Film industry at one time having 40 different film studio offices and screening rooms.'
