N16, Evering Road, 9a

Photos and comments from c.2011 at show that the building and the plaque have been restored since then. Back then it was ".. used by J. Black, a nut, bolt and fixings merchant, who uses the address 'Grange Hall'..."

The associated church is the one on the other side of the road, St Pauls West Hackney.
