The company moved twice more before settling in it’s well known former head office location in Beckenham in 1968.
In 1973 they acquired E Gray & Son, and used it’s prominently placed building on the Clerkenwell Road as the Central London branch for the whole business. In 1988 Walsh opened a branch in the Birmingham Jewellery Quarter and in 1996 moved their London branch, more centrally into Hatton Garden.
