Waring & Gillow was a firm of English furniture manufacturers and antique dealers formed in 1897 by the merger of Gillows of Lancaster and London and Waring of Liverpool. A contemporary newspaper reported at the opening of this building that the impressive new premises covered 40,000 ft. and included a domed Georgian Rotunda which measured 85 ft. by 54 ft. This building would remain the company’s headquarters for the next 65 years Grade II listed in 1973.
