Property Description
Situated in South-East London in the Borough of Southwark, is Graces Mews; a redeveloped through road off Camberwell Grove. The Mews contains 21 properties used for residential purposes.
The Mews is part of the Camberwell Grove Conservation Area. A high explosive bomb fell directly onto the Mews in World War II and when the London Poverty Maps were originally published, the area was deemed to have poorer living conditions and lower than average household earnings for the time.
The two storey properties have plain brickwork facades, surrounded by a tarmacadam road surface with intact garages and restricted parking.
Everchanging Nature
The original purpose of the Mews was to provide stable/ coach house accommodation for the main houses on the surrounding streets and nowadays they are predominantly used for residential purposes.
Before and since 2003 there have been a few planning applications made for alterations to the properties within the Mews, the most notable being a first floor rear extension to a property.
