This magnificent building was built in the 1850s for the Worcester Engine Works Company, a railways engineering company. They went into liquidation in 1864. The City of Worcester Corporation acquired the building specifically to house the Great Commercial Exhibition of 1882. AFter the Exhibition closed the building was used for a number of small companies in sections of the whole. In 1895 William Kay, the founder and Chairman of Kays of Worcester, bought the entire building and moved the major part of his business into the site in 1896. Kasy remained there until 1906, when they moved into specially built offices at 23, The Thything.

The shop in the right side foreground is more likely to be Lawleys not Webbs as they had premises there for many years, and appear on a number of other 20th century images here. It occupied what is now part of Superdrug (55-56 High Street) in what was the front part of The Arcade - an ornate ~1903 building with obelisks and crests etc adorning it, on the corner of Hight Street and Church Street - it also went behind the High Street from St Swithin's Street to Church Street. By this time (1925?) the arcade itself had become a cinema, but the High Street facing units remained separate retail shops, as the photo clearly shows
