I was clearly fascinated by this building, particularly its roof and took several pictures, with the other two I think being taken down the street at right. It was on the river side of Westferry Rd, not far from the West India Dock entrance, but frustratingly neither the street name or the company name can be seen clearly in the picture. If you know you can see part of the name BEECHAM (though the M looks more like an N). .
Beecham's was on a part of Sufferance Wharf, just to the north of Cuba St. In 1990 this was replaced by The Anchorage, a development with one ten storey and two four-storey blocks providing 120 flats, nine terraced houses, a leisure centre, and four commercial units.More on Beecham's with the next two pictures.
