Hibberts Solicitors - Nantwich (Pillory St.)

The offices at No.1 Pillory Street occupy the top floors of the present building, constructed in 1911, the design was by local architect E.H. Edleston of Bower & Edleston, at Nantwich firm of architects founded in 1854 by Thomas Bower. A comtemporary commentator described: “The general amazement at the splendid type and character of architectutal building Messrs Chesters decided upon as their new stores; it was likened by some, with its roof port hole windows to the great Lusitania, which vessel had shortly before been launched. Nantwich had indeed, woke up. All, I think agree that the umost that could be done was accomplished.”
