I think it's always been leased. It's a pretty standard office building that just so happened to be near BH so handy for them to expand into. As mentioned they occupied nearby Henry Wood House and also nearby buildings like Brock House and Yalding House.

As discussed in the Elstree thread they rent some premises, lease others, some they own the land and lease or own the building. There's only a couple where they own both land and buildings

Bush House was another they leased, it went back to the owners when it was vacated. I think 35 Marylebone High Street they owned, but the whole area is owned by one of the big London estate owners so didn't own the land it was on

I can't remember where I saw it but I think the replacement studios are numbered starting WG.

In the end they just carried on the numbering I believe of the existing studios in the area. Although maybe they will change it etc once everything is settled down. 82 etc etc etc. I don’t think it would be practical for them to be named separately from everywhere else.


I noticed someone has updated the LBH wiki page to include these new studios.
