Arding and Hobbs is a Grade II listed building at the junction of Lavender Hill and St John's Road, Battersea, London SW11 1QL.[1]
Arding and Hobbs was built in 1910 in an Edwardian Baroque style, and the architect was James Gibson.[1]
Formerly run by Allders (from the late 1970s until the group went into administration and was subsequently broken up and sold) it is now split between a branch of Debenhams department store and TK Maxx retail.
The store/building is featured in a number of films and television programmes including the 1981 action-thriller Nighthawks, where the shop was bombed, and the 1993 Mr. Bean episode, Do-It-Yourself Mr. Bean.[2]
