This house has been inherited through the Callard family. Daniel Callard and his brother-in-law James Bowser founded the firm of Callard and Bowswer in 1837 in Finchley, London. They were originally bakers and confectioners, but after moving to Euston at the end of the nineteenth century and thier development of a process of vacuum cooking for butterscotch and toffee, they became leaders in thier industry.
