The building bears the name of Norwood Soft Drinks - I guess they were sold, rather than made here. There is an older painted sign below "... Installations Ltd Heating & Plumbing" with the phone number 631478. The building was originally a pair of cottages dating from c.1834-1847, but according to Historic England may have been used for warehouse storage as they were near a canal wharf. Listed grade II (list entry 1255742).
