Former manufactory and warehouse, Shoreditch
The south Shoreditch area was once a centre of furniture manufactory, and many of the buildings associated with the industry remain. The image shows the rear view of the building once occupied by Lebus of Tabernacle Street. For a full account of the furniture trade in the Shoreditch area see this https://content.historicengland.org.uk/images-books/publications/behind-the-veneer-south-shoreditch/behind-the-veneer.pdf/.

62-72 Tabernacle Street
This former Victorian warehouse is currently used by a number of textile and design companies. A plain but solidly attractive building.
A small sign above the 30mph sign informs us that Clere Street was formerly known as Paradise Street. This would appear to be a considerable downgrading, but having seen the street, the previous name must have been a constant source of disappointment.

43-47 Tabernacle Street
One of many former Victorian warehouses in the area which has found a new lease of life, in this case as flats.
As a rule, these buildings are built of brick, of four or five storeys, with facades composed of generous windows (those on the top floor sometimes arched) divided by full-height piers or columns.
