It was probably the earliest of the residential apartment blocks in the wider Clerkenwell district, immediately north of the City of London. The building became the fictional residence of Agatha Christie's Poirot, known as Whitehaven Mansions. In 2003 the building was declared listed in the initial category of the national scheme.
