Farm Lane, SW6 The building was built in 1880 by the London Road Car Company as their depot. The Company was one of the largest proprietors of horse-drawn buses in London. The building was also one of the largest and finest horse stables in London and contained two-storey stables that were ranged around a quadrangle, where 700 horses lived in about 1890. The LGOC took over the premises in 1909, and left in 1923. The 1946 Bomb Damage Map shows the building on the Site suffered minor blast damage, probably as a result of a V1 Flying Bomb which landed to the east of the site during 1944. The 1971 Ordnance Survey map shows the building was used as a 'Catering Depot'. 21/03/2020 Ray
