Constitution Hill

- Start date
Is this the group Pedro, near the junction with Henrietta Street ? So well preserved. In fact, there seems to have been quite a lot of refurbishment along this part of Constitutuion Hill. Nice to see.

I think this might have been on the opposite (west) side of Constitutuion Hill to the shops mentioned in post #2. Wondered if the Taylor & Challen buildings (#32-42) replaced these houses and shops/workshops ? Unfortunately, I can't make out any names on the boards.

Building on the picture of Constituion Hill, here we have Rileys at #23, at the junction with Henrietta Street, also once referred to as Riley's Corner. The well-designed and proportioned, corner plot building still exists. Constitutuion Hill leads off to the right.
There seems to be a hall named 'Angelus Hall' on the first floor. I think this was later re-named 'Riley's Hall'.
We have a dedicated thread for Riley's here:

Most likely, as later Cornelius Ede seems to own the block and renting out. His address given as 41, and in Street View 41 goes straight there !
This is quite the contrast (and assuming street numbering hasn't changed over the years) from this 1911 view replacing part of the site with a Hampton Hilton Hotel on Constitutuion Hill.
