Description51 and 53 Leigham Court Road - geograph.org.uk - 1804912.jpg |
English: 51 and 53 Leigham Court Road Now known as Streatham Close, but originally the Clevedon Private Hotel. A good example of "Stockbroker Tudor", with its half-timbering, and one of many upmarket residential developments in Streatham in the 1930s. The flats behind are housed in a modernist-style building. It is within the Leigham Court Road (North) Conservation Area.
Leigham Court Road was laid out in 1839, and while development began in the early 1840s, it didnt really take off until after the building of the Crystal Palace and West End Railway and the opening of Streatham Hill station in 1856. Quite a number of the original, large Victorian houses survive at either end of the road, and even though their grounds have in some cases since been built on, the remaining mature trees and general landscaping have enabled the area to retain much of its original arcadian character.
