Originally constructed in 1861 as the Bryant & May Match Factory — once London’s largest — the building was the site of the historic Match Girls Strike of the 1880s, a landmark in the formation of the Union of Women Matchmakers. In recognition of its cultural and historical significance, the site was awarded an English Heritage blue plaque in 2022, proudly displayed near the concierge entrance.
