The Old Silk Mill on Sheep Street. In 1902 C.R. Ashbee moved his Guild of Handicraft Image, having moved from Mile End in east London. Ultimately the guild was unsuccessful with most of the guild's craftsmen returning to London. Hart Silversmiths is still here and is an offshoot of the original guild.
