night-bell and speaking tube

it’s great when you stumble across a piece of history in an unexpected place.  this lovely building is near my office and yesterday was the first time i’d stopped to read the sign.

how fantastic to have a ‘speaking tube connecting the front door to the doctor’s bedside’ back in 1892 !
