Still unable to pin-point the exact date. But found a few more information:
1. The Caritas website mentioned the Caine Road Centre was inaugurated in 1963. Uncertain if it was meant for the older building shown or something else;
2. There is a foundation stone, a bit blurred in Street View but still visible, showing it was laid on 19th March 1964;
The building at the back appears to be St Joseph’s Building. I remember the gothic style windows, St Joseph’s building and St Joseph’s terrace we’re in pretty bad shape during the 70s but you could tell the architecture must have been stunning many decades ago.

Re: May be older than 1970
Hi there,
I remember the Caritas Building was already there in the 1970s. This one showed its predecessor on the west bound Caine Road.

The Names of Buildings gives
The Names of Buildings gives 1968 as the completion date for Caritas House, which seems a bit late but not impossible for a 1964 foundation stone.
Pre 1960s
