It was built in 1899–1901 to a design by W. H. Romaine-Walker and Francis Besant.[1] The building was commissioned by the soap manufacturer Robert William Hudson.

It was grade II listed in 1958.[1] In 1969–1970, after a fire, the interior was renovated.[2]

The building is now commercial offices, and in 1999 was purchased, refurbished, and let out as offices by HAB Group, a privately-owned property development and investment company in the Turks and Caicos Islands.[3]
