Its still a requirement from the days of tea merchants all working and living in the same street, and in the next, all spice merchants etc working and living together too. As bizarre as it sounds, it has never been revoked but just sits there, forgotten.
AA,
Sad I know, but I had a quick look. The reality seems to be somewhere in the middle and looks as if its aimed at those who work mostly from home.
"Under the Companies Act 1985 your company must state its name (as it appears in its memorandum of association) in certain places and on its business stationery. Your company must also give certain information on all its business letters, order forms and websites. Every company must paint or affix its name on the outside of every office or place in which its business is carried on - even if it is a director's home. The name must be kept painted or affixed and it must be both conspicuous and legible."
