Description: The business premises of Allsop Saddlers and Harness Makers in the Nottingham Express Offices, showing the workforce standing outside. These buildings were built between 1875 and 1876 by Watson Fothergill as the newspaper offices, printing works, shops and offices for Messrs Jevons and Renals, proprietors of the 'Nottingham Express' newspaper. The corner entrance tower was inspired by the work of the architect Burges. In keeping with the paper's Liberal leanings, the entrance is graced by carvings of the heads of three leading Liberal politicians of the day - Cobden, Gladstone & Bright. The upper storey was added by Fothergill in 1898-99 to provide the paper with more office space. It now houses shops.
