The offices are of P & H Cleaning Company Ltd, according to a brass plate. The flats are believed to be above, reached by the 72 front door alongside Cawnpore Street, right. A Lambeth Borough website recounts that this was formerly "French's Dairy at 72-74 Gipsy Hill, Upper Norwood. The cows grazed in French's Field at the bottom of Gipsy Hill and were driven up to the dairy for milking. The milking sheds were behind in Cawnpore Street." https://boroughphotos.org/lambeth/72-74-gipsy-hill-norwood/ Stephen Richards saw it like this in 2011 https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2334343 Norwood Street Histories has more: https://norwoodstreethistories.org.uk/building/frenchs-dairy/
