Property Description
Situated to the west of London in Hammersmith and Fulham, is Salisbury Mews; a part-cobbled cul-de-sac approached through an entrance under a building on Dawes Road. The Mews contains 14 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 Central Fulham Conservation Area. When the London Poverty Maps were first published, the area was deemed to have comfortable living conditions with ordinary household earnings for the time.
The one and two storey properties have a mixture of plain and painted brickwork facades and pitched roof styles, surrounded by a cobbled and tarmacadam road surface.
Everchanging Nature
The original purpose of the Mews was to provide stable/ coach house accommodation for the main houses on the surrounding streets but nowadays the properties are used for residential purposes.
There have been a few planning applications made for alterations to the properties within the Mews both before and since 2003, notably the excavations of basements under 6, 7 and 8 Salisbury Mews in 2007.
