Description: | These bronze Art Deco-style gates were located at the entrance of the now demolished Firestone factory in west London. Wallis Gilberts & Partners built the factory in 1928. It was one of several built along Great West Avenue in the late 1920s. The road was London's main arterial route to the west and had been planned for many years. The first section opened in 1925. The Firestone factory was controversially demolished in 1980, just before it was due to be listed as an outstanding example of 1920s architecture. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Museum of London | Rights holder: | Museum of London | Subjects: | work Cityscape Art and Design | Temporal: | 1929 | Source: | Museum of London | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
