1.0 EXISTING BUILDING 1.1 Henry Arding & James Hobb Henry Henry Arding and James Hobbs were the founders of Wandsworth textiles company, Arding & Hobbs, which started as a drapery shop on Wandsworth High Street in 1867. In 1884, they expanded from other premises at the corner of Falcon Road and Battersea Park Road, opening a store closer to Clapham Junction Station costing £8,000. This became Arding & Hobbs’ flagship store. The Grade II listed building sits alongside other notable Battersea buildings from the same era including The Falcon pub and The Grand Theatre. 3

Public access was via an ‘arcade’ at 13 St John’s Road (acquired in 1914) which led to new grocery, meat, poultry and fish departments (fig. 2.46). Above these, the restaurant and the ‘Ardington Rooms’ for banquets and balls, which included a masonic temple, were entered from a plain brick front in Ilminster Gardens. Around 1930 the building was extended to include nos. 13-17 St John’s Road. The drawings at figs. 2.44 to 2.47 illustrate the proposals for extra shopping space with a restaurant and reception rooms on two upper floors. There is a lack of clarity on the specific uses for the new third floor public rooms. The Survey of London suggests the restaurant was designed to be top-lit from a domed skylight (fig. 2.53 and fig. 2.57 top left) with coloured glass, while the temple featured handsome plastered ceilings. Historic England’s listing citation suggests it was the other way round with the ballroom having Image 1: Ground Floor Plan 1911 (RIBA Library). Image 2: 1949 Ordnance Survey the domed skylight.
