Time was when every new large or prestigious housing development would have a small office strategically placed at the main entrance to the estate to provide potential purchasers with information about the new properties for sale. This wooden kiosk on Bradmore Green is a rare survivor, probably placed here to capture the attention of customers arriving by train in the 1930s. Today it is still in use by a firm of estate agents, Fine & Country.
