The Lyric was originally built in 1888, but the current interior y Frank Matcham was done in an 1895 reconstruction. The theatre was taken apart piece by piece in 1969, and stored for 10 years before being reassembled inside the concrete building it currently occupies. The original 1888 theatre was built on Bradmore Grove. This street seems to be no longer in existence. Its South of the current location of the theatre, near the West End of Sussex Place, which is under the Hameersmith Flyover. So between the current location and the Apollo Hammersmith.
