Mappin & Webb Building

A branch of Mappin & Webb once occupied a prime location in the City of London, at the junction of Poultry and Queen Victoria Street, adjacent to Bank junction, in the City of London. Designed in the neo-gothic style by John Belcher in 1870, the listed building was demolished to make way for the construction of a Postmodern office and retail building – No 1 Poultry – despite a fiercely fought and highly publicised campaign to save the 19th-century building.
