People associate this area, if they think about it at all, with stucco terraces, bijou boutiques and Hugh Grant, but the area around the tube station is liberally dotted with 1960s concrete, redeveloped by Cotton Ballard & Blow for the London County Council in 1962. Exposed and aggregrate-clad concrete block of flats (each with its own fire escape to the floor below) on a podium with shops at street level.
