Ah, you mean Viscount House!

It was indeed 5 stories high, IIRC. I can't remember much after all this time, but I do recall that the Engineering library was on the ground floor. On the top floors were the development engineers, mods section, drawing office, etc. I briefly worked on the 4th floor, right at the end of my time at BA.

Oh, and it had a Paternoster!

It was your reference to the 28R threshold that had me fooled ...
