Photograph taken May 1938 of the Ritz façade with an Odeon style fin. To the left are the three bay windows of the restaurant which was an afterthought by the owners as it was not included in the original plans. Reworking to include this involved new foundations to take the additional weight of the new first floor and blue engineering brick piers were installed to support the second floor.
