Cricklade Avenue is part of the ABCD Estate - so called after its principal roads, Amesbury, Barcombe, Cricklade and Downton Avenues. It is more properly known as Leigham Court Estate. The original part of the ABCD Estate was built on the 66 acre estate of Leigham Court which had been purchased by the Artisans, Labourers and General Dwellings Company in 1890. Development took place in the 1890s. Suburban houses were later built further away from the main road as here in Cricklade Avenue.
