“Did that warehouse always have that strange extension?” someone whispers. You might be thinking the same thing as you stand before Chandlery House. Chandlery House is a distinctive building. It dates back to the mid-19th century. It stands out with its bright yellow brick facade and an unusual jutting-out section that seems to interrupt the flow of Gower’s Walk. This “sticky-out bit,” as it’s fondly known by locals, is more than just a quirky architectural feature. It was designed as a functional loading bay, a testament to the building’s past life as a bustling warehouse. Constructed during a time when East London was a hub of industry, Chandlery House has witnessed the ebb and flow of city life. Today, the once-thriving warehouse has been transformed. It now houses a collection of modern offices and apartments. But the soul of its industrial past is not lost.
