The recent preservation of the three houses, 35-37 Much Park Street, that form this building owes much to Ron Morgan who lived in the building for 45 years and opened a toy museum here in 1970 displaying his collection of toys dating from 1740. He died in 2007. The building from Whitefriars Lane: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/951451 The only remaining part of the monastery buildings, the east range of the cloisters, is separated from this gateway by the ring road.
