Now shut away behind the gates of the businesses on the foundry site (WT Avery, manufacturers of industrial weighbridges and weighing equipment) these former cottages date from the early to mid 19th century, and have been used as offices in the more recent past; they are currently unused as at mid 2019. They were Grade II listed https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/101216064-office-row-west-of-east-gate-at-soho-foundry-soho-and-victoria-ward#.XRUrzehKjcs & https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1216064 in 1987.
