A drawing of 62 - 64 Albion Street. What a joy to find it's still standing. It was designed by William Tadman Foulkes as a jewellery factory and built for Bishton & Fletcher in 1883. Not 100% sure about the labels for the images in the 1885 drawing but they may be
1. Front elevation
2. Polishing shop
3. Manufacturing
4. Gilding and engraving shop
