Brentham Garden Suburb was the first garden suburb to be built on ‘Co-partnership’ principles and was an inspiration for the later, larger and more famous Hampstead Garden Suburb .It was designed to a plan by the leading garden city architects Barry Parker and Raymond Unwin, with houses, mostly in the Arts and Crafts style. In 1969 Brentham Garden Suburb was designated a conservation area. The Brentham Society was formed in the same year to support and maintain the character of the area.
