Interior of a house in Grosvenor Street
Description
View southwards of ground-floor rear room in 59 Grosvenor Street, Mayfair. This white-painted wall-panelled room is set up as an accounts office with desks covered by adding machines, telephones, box files, books and paperwork. Five people sit working at the desks, shirt-sleeved and with the sash windows open. The far wall has a concave contour and the ceiling above features an eighteenth-century block cornice with rosettes between the blocks. Two rooms have been merged to create this office with a supporting beam across the ceilings and another line of block cornicing in front of that beam. Through the sash windows, a balustrade decorated with urns and flowers can be seen and also the brick-faced elevation of the mews building behind. 59, built 1723 as a townhouse and occupied in 1975 by the publishers Octopus Books Ltd, is Grade II listed, listing number 1066703.
