Baker House, 4 Button Street and 8, 10, 12 Rainford Gardens, Liverpool 2. "Mathew Street Quarter".

The datestone at the top of the warehouse hoist says "E G 1867".

It's called Graham's Buildings on the 1890 OS map.

 

4 Button Street was the "Chicago Vaults" pub by 1911.

 

By the 1960s before this "Quarter" became a major tourist attraction, Baker House was the home of Baker Britt (Northern) Ltd. Forwarding Agents, since moved to Kirkby.

Now it's flats (fancy living there?).
