The Sir John Laing Building, named in honour of the companys president who died in January 1978 at the age of 98, was built between 1977 and 1980 having been planned since 1974. The building completed a phase of development at Laings Mill Hill headquarters complex, an area that the firm had occupied since moving from Carlisle in 1922. By 1988 however a major restructuring of the company and meant a wholesale relocation out of the Mill Hill site with just the Sir John Laing Building remaining as Group HQ. It too was subsequently demolished and housing occupies the site. The use of brick in a sculptural way was a deliberate attempt by architect Graham Barsby to distance the design from the concrete rectilinear forms of the 1960s. The building won a Certificate of Merit in the Brick Development Association Architectural Awards in 1983

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the elegant Sir John Laing Building in all its glory. Located in Mill Hill, Barnet, Greater London, this architectural masterpiece was constructed between 1977 and 1980 as part of a development phase at Laing's headquarters complex. Named after the company's esteemed president who passed away at the remarkable age of 98 in January 1978, this building stands as a testament to his legacy. Architect Graham Barsby deliberately incorporated brickwork into the design to deviate from the prevailing concrete structures of the 1960s. The result is a stunning fusion of artistry and functionality that earned recognition with a Certificate of Merit in the Brick Development Association Architectural Awards in 1983. While time has seen significant changes for both Sir John Laing Building and its parent company, with only this structure remaining as Group HQ before it too succumbed to demolition, this photograph immortalizes its grandeur forever. Today, housing occupies the site where once stood an iconic symbol of architectural excellence. The image showcases not only the fountain outside the front entrance but also highlights how architecture can shape our surroundings and leave lasting impressions on our urban landscapes. Preserved by Historic England Archive, this print serves as a reminder of our rich history and celebrates exceptional craftsmanship that withstands both time and trends.
