Contrasting Housing Styles, Wilbury Gardens

Image: © Simon Carey Taken: 2 Dec 2006

Wilbury Gardens was laid out between 1894-1901 and the architecture retains a late Victorian massiveness. Somewhere in time a gap has appeared and has been filled in the last 30 years by a modern box home which seems dwarfed by the imposing size of its neighbours.
