30 Regent Street, Cambridge

History of 30 Regent Street

1896 Premises of Ivett and Reed. They moved their masonry work to 615 Newmarket Road in 1903 but used Regent Street and 43 Mill Road as showrooms.

Ivett and Reed, Regent Street — business expansion, 21 November 1903
A growing demand for the stone, marble and granite objects with which the memory of the dead are perpetuated indicates an expansion of business for those who provide these melancholy tokens. Messrs Ivett and Reed have found their premises on Mill Road and Regent Street inadequate and have opened a new branch on Newmarket Road, appropriately near the new cemetery. The premises consist of a dwelling house and show-room and are built of Bath stone with a portico supported by two graceful Corinthian pillars. Inside is a chimney-piece of statuary marble upon which delicate-looking foliage is represented in the Italian style.
