Description: | This gas ceiling lamp was used as a light fitting in the North Cheam and Whetstone branch of Woolworth's. Originally an American company, the first British Woolworth's opened in Church Street, Liverpool on Friday 5 November 1909. The first London stores were in Brixton, Woolwich, Harlesden, Croydon and Peckham. Each branch had a similar layout and fixtures and fittings, helping to establish the store as a recognisable brand. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Museum of London | Rights holder: | Museum of London | Subjects: | work Leisure | Source: | Museum of London | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
