Infill on St Catharine's Road
Each of Reginald Blomfield's houses on the St Catharine's estate represents a personal design, pleasing to look at in itself and as part of the whole group. So this house built about a hundred years later is the most alien of a number of newer houses or blocks of flats, being at once utterly undistinguished and entirely self-absorbed. A design with something to say should have been a prerequisite in the Broxbourne Conservation Area, though I do not know whether the designation covered the estate at the time of building.

House on St Catharine's Road
The designer of this house understood that making a contribution to an attractive housing estate 70-80 years older did not call for lip service to form or materials but something of individuality and quality.

St Catharine's
Two contrasting houses on the eastern section of St Catharine's Road, both designed by Reginald Blomfield. The nearer, St Catharine's, is now a care home. The semi-detached pair in William-and-Mary style beyond, dating from 1894, is Grade 2 listed.
