Chambers Wharf is one of the last remaining dockside warehouses in central London. Many larger similar buildings have been demolished or redeveloped - indeed the same fate awaits this building.
It was initially built in the 1930s as a warehouse/cold store for imported meat and other food, and was used for this purpose up until the 1980s. A During the war, the military briefly used it; and there are rumours of bomb shelters underneath going under the Thames.
After closure, it was used as a gold bullion store & document store. Two episodes of The Professionals were also filmed there.

Colchester has a few old derelict buildings in it's Hythe region. A lot of them have been demolished to make way for luxury(/student?) flats, but a few remain.
