SEVEN DIALS

The building above, photographed in 1920, is now put to a very different use. It is the building in Dyke Road, No. 126, housing the Women’s section of the Labour Exchange. Built in the early 1850s and then known as 6 Peel Terrace, it was used for more than 60 years as a girl’s preparatory school. After the 1914 –18 war, for one brief year – 1920, it was a Repertory Theatre, and then the Ministry of pensions offices.
