  • Description
    Photograph of a colour-tinted postcard showing the façade and sidewall of the Finsbury Park Empire on the corner of St Thomas’s Road and Prah Road in Finsbury Park, London. It is a three-storey building with two side towers in red brick flanking a wider central bay containing an advanced stone structure with the main entrance at its base and a balustraded balcony on the second floor. The right hand side of the postcard shows the sidewall, with advertising signage at street-level, and a dome-capped corner tower with a crowning lantern and spire at its apex.
