Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited was commissioned by King's Cross Central General Partner Limited to undertake building recording of the Coal and Fish Offices, Wharf Road, London, centred on Ordnance Survey NGR TQ 3005 8344. Although they are not listed, they lie within Regent's Canal Conservation Area. They comprise five attached buildings (Blocks 1 to 5 from east to west) and were built in phases between 1851/2 and 1862. The initial phase was part of Lewis Cubitt's design for the Kings Cross Goods Yard complex. They provided accommodation for the clerical staff needed to handle the paperwork generated by the incoming traffic in coal and fish. A major regeneration development scheme has been proposed for the King's Cross area. Outline Planning Permission for the scheme has been granted subject to certain conditions, one of which requires a programme of building recording. The proposal is to reuse and refurbish the Offices. Building recording was carried out intermittently from May to September 2008 in accordance with English Heritage's Level 4. The building recording and documentary research showed that Blocks 1 and 2 had been built before Blocks 3 to 5 and by April 1853. Blocks 3 to 5 were then added in phases between April 1853 and 1862. Blocks 3 and 4 were added first as a single storey building, and by 1862, Block 5 had been added. At some point either before or after Block 5 was added, a first floor was added to Block 3 and then a second floor.
