Description

Small two storey brick building behind 84 Abercromby Avenue believed to have been an upholstery workshop numbered 84A and used by Charles J Faulkner from 1924 to 1966 (according to Wycombe Museum directory of furniture makers). Modern windows with roof of corrugated metal. Nearby houses were developed in early 20th century but brickwork looks more modern so building has probably been altered or rebuilt. Marked as furniture factory on 1975 OS 50 inch map. See report for photograph (B1).
