Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology Limited was commissioned by CgMs Consulting on behalf of their Client to carry out a photographic survey of Stewarts Garages, 72 Farm Lane, Fulham, London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, centred on OS NGR TQ 25433 77531. The photographic survey of the building was required by the Local Planning Authority to fulfil a condition of planning consent for its demolition and the redevelopment of the site. The building is not listed nor does it lie within a Conservation Area. The photographic survey was carried out in January 2013. The site was occupied by market gardens in 1869-74. The extant building was built in 1880 by the London Road Car Company as their depot. The Company was one of the largest proprietors of horse-drawn buses in London. The building was also one of the largest and finest horse stables in London and contained two-storey stables that were ranged around a quadrangle, where 700 horses lived in about 1890. The London General Omnibus Company (LGOC) took over the premises in 1909, and left in 1923. The 1946 Bomb Damage Map shows the building on the Site suffered minor blast damage, probably as a result of a V1 Flying Bomb which landed to the east of the site during 1944. The 1971 Ordnance Survey map shows the building was used as a 'Catering Depot'. At the time of the photographic survey the building was being used for storage, workshops and a garage. |
