Title
Doorway in Bartholomew Close
Description
View of the front door of 94 Bartholomew Close, City of London, looking west. The half-glazed, timber padlocked door is seen in a dilapidated state with broken glazing in the transom light above and boarded-up windows, either side. The door knocker above the letter box has been removed. The doorway has stone steps over the basement well to the threshold, bounded by wrought-iron railings with a boot scraper on the left, fluted pilasters either side, and a decorative cornice above, supported on brackets. The house dates from the seventeenth century which, together with 92, 93, and 35 to 40 Little Britain, replaced larger houses (with 95 and 34 having already been demolished to accommodate a wider entrance to the Close). The buildings, together with neighbouring buildings, are understood to have been demolished c1907 and replaced by a large warehouse occupied by Walter Charles Beetles and Company Limited, skirt manufactory, later, Templeton's carpet manufactory, Dundee's linoleum manufactory, and Chamberlain's carpet warehouse, and is currently a mixed-use development, '90 Bartholomew Close', after renovation in 2018.
