Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology was commissioned to undertake a programme of historic building recording of the former Tidal Basin Road Post and Sorting Office and the Tidal Basin Tavern public house prior to their demolition. The work was carried out in response to a planning condition (21) imposed by Newham Council. The documentary research revealed that the Post and Sorting Office was built between 1932-1934 to the designs of the Office of Works Architect Frederick Allen Llewellyn and in a Neo-Georgian style, prevalent in Post Office design during the inter war period. The Tidal Basin Tavern replaced an earlier inn of the same name, demolished following the construction of the Silvertown Flyover and associated works. It was built between July 1931 and January 1932 by Truman, Hanbury, Buxton and Co Ltd to the designs of their resident architect Mr A. E. Sewell LRIBA a respected architect specialising in public house and hotels. |
