Entrance, Tony Benn House, Victoria Street, Bristol
South West offices of Unite the Union, formerly the T&GWU (Transport and General Workers Union), on the corner of Mitchell Lane. Old-Maps shows the site densely built-up before World War II but vacant in 1949. The building is shown in outline on a map dated 1959-66, then shaded and named Transport House on a map dated 1966-76. The present entrance looks like a renewal of the original.
