Title
Buildings in Artillery Lane
Description
Front elevations of mid eighteenth-century houses with shop fronts at 56-58 Artillery Lane, Spitalfields, looking south. Number 56 is Grade I listed, listing number 1357760; number 58 is Grade II listed, listing number 1251018. The combined shop front is one of the oldest in London, and the road was named Raven Row before. Ornate iron railings adorn the first floor with iron bars on the basement windows and iron railings protecting the lower panes of the left hand bay window. A sign on the left hand entrance door is ' Marty Fashions, Vacancies, Learners'. A sign on the right hand side entrance door is 'E Patston & Son scale makers, entrance in Frying Pan Alley'. A Mini Cooper motor car is parked outside. The shop at 58 Artillery Lane is for 'Wells Printing Co.' The ornate railings no longer exist. After World War II, numbers 56 and 58 were merged into a single office building. The buildings were refurbished after a major fire in 1972, and c2006 they were sold to Alex Sainsbury, heir to the Sainsbury's food chain, who converted them into the Raven Row free art exhibition space.
