This was a fantastic chance to explore with some of Norfolks best photographers Sovereign House in Norwich, a large 1960's built carbuncle on the city skyline. Here's some history.....Her Majesty's Stationery Office was originally the official publishing and stationery department of the Government of the United Kingdom. It was also considered to be one of the main print buyers, printers and suppliers of office equipment in the U.K.
Sovereign House was built in the 1960's for the HMSO, upon completion they moved most of the main operations to Norwich from London in the 1970's.
The now disused office building in Norwich's Anglia Square, has had at least three plans proposed for its use, all of which have rejected by Norwich City Council. The future of the site is now, at the time of writing December 2012, written on the wall for Demo.
Sovereign House seen from the outside, is very imposing.
The rather imposing foyer in rather funky colours!
Here is what's left of the bar and social club!
This is what's left of the canteen
This is the stripped out kitchen
Well thanks for looking peeps
