George Farmiloe & Sons Limited were lead and glass merchants, and also general builder's merchants, established in 1823. Their office and warehouse building here was built around 1868 and is a fine example of Victorian commercial architecture, featuring an attractive Italianate palazzo-style frontage in Portland stone, white Suffolk brick and polished Aberdeen granite. The Company moved to Mitcham in 1999 and are currently in the business of distributing bathroom products to the merchant and retail trades. The building has latterly been in use as an art studio.
