Thank you! So it's actually George Yard Building but it had different name at the time.

Perhaps this was posted here before but this photo looks like a George Yard Buildings from behind - much better quality.

That's a great discovery. How did you stumble across it?

From time to time I have this way of asking google couple of etries like: victorian east end, victorian whitechapel, victorian spitalfields, xix london etc. And sometimes something new comes up from index. Last time I remember thats how I've discovered new Dorset Street photo (now popular)

It never rains, but it pours. Here's yet another photo of the rear of George Yard Buildings. I found it while looking to see if I could find an architectural plan of the building, because I'd be intrigued to see exactly how the stairs go. Was the ground floor extension a more recent addition?
