Illustration from "Cripplegate Ward" by J.J. Baddeley (1921), showing business premises on the south side of Fore Street, City of London. On the left of the picture is the western end of the premises of Messrs Stapley & Smith, undergarment makers, showing the entrance of a public passageway into London Wall (the old street running parallel to Fore Street). On the right is a warehouse of Messrs McIntyre, Hogg, Marsh and Co, shirtmakers, immediately to the right of which, out of view, was the junction with New Basinghall Street (cf. Goad’s Insurance Plan, Vol 1, sheet 23, image 34665). The smaller building between the two, showing the contrast between the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century architectural styles, is the shop of Russell pawnbrokers (est. 1785) at 37 Fore Street.
