The brief history of Houghtons- Ensign:
Houghtons Ltd. was formed in 1903. The firm was merger with W. Butcher and Sons Ltd. to form Houghton-Butcher Manufacturing Company. Although their cameras were still sold under their separate company names, the new joint company provided a common manufacturing base. In 1926 the company products named Houghton-Butcher officially.
Houghton-Butcher was renamed Ensign Ltd. in 1930. This was the name of the cameras that it produce. The new company kept many of Houghtons and Butcher's camera ranges. In 1939 it introduced the Ensign Ful-Vue box camera. During the producing times of the Ensign Ful-Vue camera series, the manufacturer firm's names changed three times as Barnet Ensign (1945), Barnet Ensign Ross (1948) and Ross-Ensign (1954).
In 1961 Ross-Ensign had faded away completely.

This empty car showroom holds a lot of memories to me. I lived opposite this place for the first 17 years of my life (my house was facing where the Clio is parked). It's been a car showroom for many years, longer than I can think and long before my time. I spent many, many happy hours in this place between the ages of 9 and 15 (1999-2005), at weekends, after school and in school holidays, up close to and getting rides in some lovely cars. (things like 80s/90s Ferrari, Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, Rolls Royce, Bentley etc, all reasonably newer cars then than they are now). I was probably more of a nuisance than a help to the many people who ran and worked at this place in that time, but I still see many of them on a semi-regular basis today, and call them all friends.
I was saddened today to see a sign inside the showroom stating that it is soon to be a letting agents. I learnt the majority of my knowledge of the motor trade hanging around here, and I seriously doubt I'd be where I am today without this place, and the people it's connected me with. End of an era.
