Description
Illustration from “Cripplegate Ward” by J.J. Baddeley (1921), showing view of the north-eastern junction of Cripplegate Buildings (left, mostly out of view) and London Wall (right) from the northern end of Wood Street, City of London. Baddeley records that the house at the corner dates from the end of the eighteenth century, not long after Cripplegate itself was dismantled in 1760. The warehouses to the right of it date from 1878-80 and were initially occupied by straw-hat makers, corset manufacturers and oriental goods importers. To the right again, the tree and railings belong to St Alphage Churchyard.
