Liberty Department Store in Great Marlborough Street
Description
Liberty Department Store, Great Marlborough Street, Soho. The founder, Arthur Lasenby Liberty, bought numerous properties on Great Marlborough Street and built his new store between 1922-1924. It was designed by Edwin T. Hall and E.

The block facing Great Marlborough Street and Little Marlborough Street is timber framed and also has stone cladding, tiled roofs and clustered moulded brick chimneystacks. Four storeys, with gabled attics. The gables have decorative bargeboards and there are elaborate balconies. The main entrance has corbelled canted bays surmounted by overhanging gables.
