Caroone House

Caroone House was a London office block in Farringdon Street which was built in the 1970s on the site of the Congregational Memorial Hall.[1] It was used by British Telecom for their international business and for telephone tapping.[2] It was demolished in 2004 to be replaced by the Ludgate West development.

Today 5 Fleet Place stands on the site of Caroone House.[3]
