I have had three posts in a row without a picture. How boring. To make up for visually dull posts, here are two pictures for you from London. The first is the Hop Exchange building (along with a row of Barclay Bikes).
The second is the WH & H LeMay Hop Factors building.
Both buildings are south of the River Thames near the Borough Market, with Hop Factors just across the street from a Borough Market entrance. This area of London (Bankside / Southwark*) used to have many brewers, but the hop business is long gone, and The Hop Exchange is now an office building. I am guessing that, after a quick Google search, WH & H LeMay Hop Factors were hop brokers. The building is registered, and houses an employment agency, presumably unrelated to beer.
*The area of Bermondsey, home to many of London's craft brewers, is part of the Borough of Southwark, but I'll post more on this later.
