This is one a small number of sun-trap houses on the Hanger Hill Estate developed by the Haymills Company in the 1930s. The architects were Welch, Caichemaille-Day and Lander. Caichemaille-Day left the practice in 1935. Most of the houses on this superior suburban development are of traditional hipped-roofed houses, with one or two exceptions.
