In the heart of Brentford, and deserving to be better known, are The Butts, a street and square of red brick houses developed from the 1680s. The houses bear comparison, in their more modest way, with their contemporaries around Salisbury cathedral close, and their leafy gardens provide some echo of the 'seat of paradise' the area was once considered to be.
