Property Description
Situated in East London in the Borough of Tower Hamlets, is Pembroke Mews; a private, gated and cobbled through road off Morgan Street. The Mews contains 6 properties used for residential purposes. It is located on the site of an original Mews but has been re-developed to a degree that it no longer contains any surviving Mews properties.
The Mews is part of the Tredegar Square Conservation Area. A high explosive bomb fell onto Morgan Street, just outside the Mews in World War II and when the London Poverty Maps were originally published, the area was deemed to have comfortable living conditions and ordinary household earnings for the time.
The two storey properties have plain brickwork facades and roofs hidden behind parapet walls, surrounded by a cobbled road surface with raised pavements 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 the properties are predominantly used for residential purposes.
