Property Description
Situated in South-West London in the Borough of Wandsworth, is Stonnell’s Road; a paved cul-de-sac off Chatham Road. The Mews contains 11 properties used for residential purposes.
The Mews is not part of a Conservation Area. A high explosive bomb fell onto Chatham Road, right next to the Mews in World War II and when the London Poverty Maps were first published, the area was deemed to have poorer living conditions with lower than average household earnings for the time.
The two and three storey properties have plain and painted brickwork facades and mansard or parapet roof styles, surrounded by a paved road surface with no garages, 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 they are predominantly used for residential purposes.
Before and since 2003 there have been a number of planning applications made for alterations to the properties within the Mews, the most notable being; the complete demolition of some of the properties and the construction of mansard roof extensions to others.
