Premises on Cheshire Street, E2

Seven bays of a nine bay building, four of which to the right are two storey. Depending how old it is, it may be a railway building dating from before the building of Liverpool Street and its approaches in the 1860s, It is certainly on the site of one. The upper level would be on the level of the viaduct into the old Bishopsgate terminus. Street level could have been accessed via wagon lifts and tracks passing under the viaduct arches, but the Liverpool Street approaches would have severed these as the new tracks ramp up from below street level to viaduct level.
