The Association of Women Pharmacists held its inaugural meeting here on 17 October 1905.
WC1, Great Russell Street, 72/73
Inscribed into the building, just below the cornice on the two facades: "The Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain Incorporated 1843". Plaque is to the right of the minor door to the right of our picture. Perhaps the ladies were only allowed in via the servants' entrance.
