50 Andover Road

Cormell & Sons Builders was a family business – Thomas, John and Joseph each having responsibility for a different branch of the trade. In 1916, S.C. Morris bought the premises and parts of the site were sublet to other contractors.

​From the 1950s the then number 48, about where 50 Andover Road is now, was the workshop of Stan Rouse, who specialised in car upholstery. Stan was brother to the furniture upholsterer in the Gloucester Road. The car upholstery business was still flourishing in 1970.

​50 Andover Road is another of those properties which were built on the site of the former S.C. Morris builders’ yard and included in the 1990s redevelopment. It is built on the access driveway alongside what was the retail outlet for Cormell and later, S.C. Morris. The same development is also true of Maison Chaplai deli. Both of the above properties are on the original site of number 10 and part of 11 Tivoli Place.

The street scene photograph to the left gives some impression of how this row of shops looked in about 1904. The gap where J.Cormell & Sons Builders existed has since been infilled and various other alterations to the buildings have been made.
