Magnificent Tudor building has housed this family business for around 160 years and its unchanged cellars are described as Dickensian. This view from the entrance to St Julian Friars is framed by the old Cornhouse on the right and. on the left, Century House, which in the C14 was the location of several small 'messuages' or dwellings, and subsequently the site of a malthouse, a leadworks, an iron foundry, and an ironmongery. In 1913 it became the Kings Hall Cinema and later the Century Cinema. Recently it has been converted into residential and commercial units, retaining its cinematic facade.
