The building was donated by Alderman Arthur Wakerley to the Wycliffe Society for Helping the Blind in 1923. The society is still there.
In 1973, the Institution and the Wycliffe Society for Helping the Blind amalgamated and became The Royal Leicestershire, Rutland and Wycliffe Society for the Blind.
In 2001, the Royal Leicestershire, Rutland and Wycliffe Society for the Blind was re-launched under the new working name Vista. |

| Unfortunately I still cannot identify the manufacturer but the building does have the name "FJ Palfreyman & Co Ltd" on it. |

| Name in scroll type on what could be a watertower. Name appears to begin with 'F' - wondered if it was 'Foden's'? |
