Row of shops on Green Wrythe Lane opposite Wrythe Green, built in the c.1930s. The site was previously that of a workhouse built in 1792 and later named Leicester House (as shown on the 1898 25 inch map), and used for a time as a convalescent asylum and then as a succession of education establishments, with the building being named as Carshalton College on the 1913 25 inch map.
