Hill Street

This 1900s hand-coloured postcard offers a view of Hill Street looking south across the Stamford Road junction. On the left is the building constructed for Whiteaway Laidlaw in 1904, which the company used until 1910 before relocating to a new building in Fullerton Square. The building was then converted into the Oranjie Hotel in 1933. After WWII, it became a residential apartment before it finally came to be called Stamford House in 1963 and consisted of shops and offices.
