My Gt-Gt-Grandfather had premises (rented I imagine) at No. 23 Temple Street, I always wanted to know what this shop would have looked like.
This was in 1852 so very unlikely there would be a photograph in existence, I found this drawing on the odd fellows hall thread, the Mudie shop on the right was at No, 23 and I have found adverts for Mudie's Library in newspapers of 1863.
These premises seemed to change hands on a regular basis with rooms and floors being sub-let. Around 7 different occupants in the space of 10 years
I'm not saying this is how the shop front would have looked in 1852 but I like to think that it could be.
