Plaque

Carpenters Company Technical Institute and Day School

Inscription

{Beneath the Carpenters' Company emblem:}
On this site stood the Carpenters Company's Technical Institute and Day School, 1891 - 1905.

Site: Jupp Road Telephone Exchange (2 memorials)

E15, Jupp Road , 20 - 30, Telephone Exchange

The Institute and School vacated in 1905 and the telephone exchange building was constructed in 1936.  One wonders how the site was used for the intervening 30-odd years.
