Relief

Novello's printing works - music

Erection date: 1898

Site: Novello's printing works (2 memorials)

W1, Hollen Street

These reliefs are high up, at either end of the building. Not really memorials so normally we would not have collected these lovely cherubs but already having the Novello family gave us an excuse.

This was built for the Novello printing works in 1898 and designed by Frank Loughborough Pearson (son of John Pearson), who just happened to be married to the daughter of the Novello chairman Alfred Littleton. See our Novello family page for other local addresses associated with them.
