Formed on July 26, 1887, Hewetson, Milner and Thexton Ltd were prestigious 19th Century furniture makers based in Tottenham Court Road London. By 1900 the company occupied nos 1-15 Tottenham Court Road. The company resisted the estate’s attempts to extend Alfred Place through their property (The Times, 20 December 1900) but eventually were forced to move to premises to 209–212 Tottenham Court Road at a much increased increased rent, going bankrupt shortly afterwards in 1901.
