Samuel Jones' factory was one of the most prominent manufacturing premises in the area.

The firm made gummed papers, which they marketed under their Butterfly Brand trade mark.

The butterfly in question was the now long departed Camberwell Beauty which once thrived in the area.

Jones' factory opened in 1920 and was demolished in 1982.
