Property Description

Holly Mews is a cobbled through road and cul-de-sac between Drayton Gardens and Thistle Grove in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. Consisting of two parts, one with pavements raised leading to the second part (the actual Mews) and also to Thistle Grove, it contains just 6 properties in total used for residential purposes.

In World War II, a high explosive bomb fell onto Drayton Gardens, running parallel to the Mews. When the London Poverty Maps were published, the Mews was noted as having comfortable, middle-class living conditions and higher than average household earnings for the time.

The Mews is not part of a Conservation Area.

The two storey properties have a mixture of mansard and flat roof styles and painted or plain brickwork facades. Parking is restricted along the cobbled road surface and there are intact garages present.

Everchanging Nature

Originally the stable house accommodation for the main houses on Drayton Gardens, the primary purpose of the Mews properties is now residential.

Before and since 2003 there have been very few planning applications made for alterations to the properties in Holly Mews.
