Strikingly white, though it wasn't always so, with Deco overtones and a pair of giant Ionic columns flanking the entrance. Built for the eponymous drug company. It has had a rocky ride since Image As can be seen it was not demolished, but a scheme to convert it to flats foundered when the developers went bust and it is now one of a trio of fine but slowly decaying neighbouring buildings on Chester Road.
