Robert Sinclair Buildings

Robert Sinclair Buildings
Premises built for the Robert Sinclair Tobacco Company on this corner site, to the right on Blenheim Street is Sinclair Building of 1913. On the left and facing onto Westgate Road is Blenheim House, built in 1919. The design was by architects Cackett & Burns Dick for use as a tobacco factory, warehouse and offices.

The firm was acquired by the Imperial Tobacco Company in 1930, of which company Sinclair was later chairman from 1947 to 1959 and president.
