Part of the premises of James Burroughs Ltd, gin distillers in Montford Place, Kennington. Originally the building belonged to Haywards the pickle manufacturers, but was bomb-damaged in World War II. This is the distiller's third London site since the firm was established by James Burroughs, a chemist, in 1820 and is the home of Beefeater London Dry Gin. The gin is made from distilled grain spirit of about 98% pure alcohol, with added 'botanicals' - which include juniper, coriander, almond, angelica, liqurice, orris root and lemon peel.Photograph by M.D.Trace, dated October 1965.
