The building on the left is marked on 1960s OS maps https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/341173/555175/13/101329 as 'Railway Hostel'. Looking at older maps, it appears to date from the early 20th century - then conveniently situated just behind the London Road railway yard (see Image ). Today it is still a men's hostel, but run by Impact Housing, not the railways.
