Built to maintain the Brigade's vehicles, but I'm not sure it is any longer in use. It lies behind, and was built at the same time and in a similar style to the Brigade's headquarters on Albert Embankment (Image]). So probably by the London County Council's E.P. Wheeler in 1937. Brick with strong horizontal emphases and Art Deco touches such as curved projections and stepped piers on the ground floor.
