George VI - Jupp Road

Inscription

{In the metal work, below "Telephone Exchange":}
GR VI
1937

Site: Jupp Road Telephone Exchange (2 memorials)

E15, Jupp Road , 20 - 30, Telephone Exchange

The Institute and School vacated in 1905 and the telephone exchange building was constructed in 1936.  One wonders how the site was used for the intervening 30-odd years.
