London is a city filled with incredible history. Every old building has lived many lives before this one, with generations living in it and eventually leaving. It’s just hard to track down what those lives actually were, since usually all evidence has left with its inhabitants. By chance, one building has remained a time capsule for its past life. The way it existed over a hundred years ago is still intact, giving us a once-in-a-lifetime peek into the world as it was so long ago.
