United Kingdom House in Oxford Street
Description
Front and side elevations of United Kingdom House at 164-182 Oxford Street, Westminster, seen from Great Titchfield Street and Eastcastle Street at the rear, during redevelopment work, showing the stripped interior, scaffolding, cranes and McAlpine company sign. The building was originally occupied by the furniture company Waring and Gillow. It opened in 1906 and was designed by R. Frank Atkinson, its style inspired by Hampton Court Palace with its red brick and ornamentation. In 1977 the internal structure of the building was redeveloped to create an open plan layout for office use, as shown in this image. The retail space was later occupied by Gamages store, and more recently by Uniqlo and H&M. United Kingdom House was Grade II* listed in 1973, listing number 1066035. People are walking in the street.
