Historic Jersey buildings


22 Charing Cross



Because of the demolition and rebuilding of several elements of the Co-Op properties in Charing Cross in the second half of the 20th century, it is difficult to be certain, without access to detailed plans, which original properties were where. We think that this building was erected on the site of Nos 22 and 23
