The image showcases the architectural prowess of R L Roumieu, who designed these magnificent stables in 1876. Standing proudly against the backdrop of a rapidly evolving cityscape, these stables were not just functional buildings but also works of art. With intricate details and grandeur befitting their purpose, they housed horses that played an integral role in transporting goods for Crosse & Blackwell. Sadly, progress often comes at a cost. As Charing Cross Road was constructed and modern offices took its place, these historic stables met their demise.
