Burton's Yard
Burton the tailor built grand stores. Notice the black granite pilasters and the art deco styling.
BR3, High Street, Beckenham, 189, Pizza Express
The 3 black plaques are low down on the pilasters between the windows. 'Tailor Alley' can be seen to the left of our main photo. 'Burton's Yard' is in that alley.
