Date:1910 - 1920 (c.)

Description:The company of A. Andrews occupied a site on Bath Row for decades. The firm occupied numbers 163 to 175 Bath Row and this stood at the junction of Bath Row with Islington Row. The current site of where it would be is the grass area in front of Shepherd's Gardens!

The firm is of interest as they started as a hansom cab company and eventually became a motor car dealer. From this advert it would seem that in the early part of the twentieth century they were also operating as an undertakers.
