141 The Square – Imperial Chambers
- Description
The Imperial Chambers was designed by Thorrold-Jaggard as part of the Waldegrave Estate. Tenders were called in April 1937 to erect the reinforced concrete and brick building - the successful tenderer being Messrs Arnold & Matthews, at a cost of £12,600. Occupants outlined in 1939 included the De Luxe Shoe Company, Latta & Gooding, drapers, and Manhattan Ltd., mercers. Radio & Electric House (PN) Ltd. replaced Latta & Gooding by 1959, while the De Luxe Shoe Company remained for many years. Manhattan Menswear shop remains in this building.
