This company of 'engineers and brassfounders' is hanging on in area where factories get replaced by housing. Just to the left in the shot was a London taxi repair centre that has recently been demolished for redevelopment. Under the Royal Coat of Arms on the front wall of the nicely proportioned red brick building it states, "BY APPOINTMENT TO HER MAJESTY QUEEN ELIZABETH II MANUFACTURER OF KITCHEN AND BATHROOM TAPS AND MIXERS". Does the new King support this local enterprise?
