I'm aware that the K&T building at Mitre Square was a warehouse, but does anyone know exactly what sort of business they did? I also seem to recall hearing something to the effect that a K&T building was near another of the murder sites, is this true?

I'm sure this has little if any bearing on the case, but purely curiosity. ;)

Hi Andrew,

They were wholesale grocers.
There is already a thread on these boards entitled "Kearley & Tonge Warehouses", which you may find of interest.

Best Regards
John Savage

Hi Andrew
Actually the building in Mitre square was not a warehouse - it was offices. There was a Kearley and Tonge warehouse in Whitechapel (known as the East London Warehouse) but it was not in Mitre Square
All the best
Chris
