A new company called Little Lion Tales registers in Barnes
30 June 2026 · By Boroughly editorial — AI-assisted, human-reviewed.
A company called Little Lion Tales Limited registered an address at Birch Brook, SW13 0JX on 29 June 2026, filed under SIC code 47910 — the classification for retail sale via mail order or the internet.
The name is eye-catching, and the "shop" classification in the filing has sparked mild local curiosity. Worth noting, though: a SIC code for online retail means this could be an e-commerce operation rather than a bricks-and-mortar presence on a Barnes street. A company registering an address is also not confirmation that it is trading yet — many newly incorporated businesses use a residential or registered-office address while still in the planning stage.
The name does hint at something in the books, gifts or children's storytelling space, which would sit comfortably alongside Barnes's existing independent retail offer. Whether it ever becomes a physical shop on Church Road or Rocks Lane remains to be seen.
Residents curious about the company can view the public filing on Companies House. One to keep an eye on — but not to get too excited about just yet.
