The building bears the legend 'The Saint Pancras Female Orphanage'. The orphanage was founded in 1776, moved to this site in 1790 and the present building dates from 1904, architects E W Hudson and S E Goss. It closed in 1945 and has had various uses since. [source: http://www.childrenshomes.org.uk/StPancrasFemale/ ]. It is not listed (except perhaps locally), but has survived redevelopment in the building of the HS2 terminus behind it, unlike the former Temperance Hospital immediately to the north Image that has now gone.
