Property Description

Situated within Inner London in the Borough of Camden, is Tottenham Mews; a cul-de-sac off Tottenham Street and parallel to Charlotte Mews, also containing original/ surviving Mews properties. The Mews contains 8 properties used for commercial purposes.

Tottenham-Mews

The Mews is part of the Charlotte Street Conservation Area. Designated in 1974 with subsequent extensions in 1981, 85 and 99, the Charlotte Street Conservation Area is situated in an area known as ‘Fitzrovia’. It has a dense grid pattern of streets and not much open spaces. Most of the buildings are four storeys and are set back from the street, enclosing the space. The area displays the BT Tower in prominence (though the actual tower is outside the Conservation Area) and a limited amount of Mews properties. Few original Mews remain, having been replaced by warehouses and workshops in the 19th Century, but what does remain is of the greatest historical interest in the area.

 

A high explosive bomb fell onto Tottenham Street, right next to the Mews, presumably causing significant damage to the properties in World War II and when the London Poverty Maps were first published, the area was deemed to have a mixture of comfortable and poorer living conditions.

 

The two, three and four storey properties have rendered and painted brickwork facades with a mixture of mansard and parapet roof styles, surrounded by a tarmacadam road surface and raised pavements.

 

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 commercial purposes.

 

Before and since 2003 there have been many planning applications made for alterations to the properties within the Mews, the most notable being; garage conversions to additional office space and basement excavations. Conservation Area controls apply to any new development in the Mews.
