Looking southwards up Camberwell Grove.

A stately trio of Georgian houses, late C18th, each of three storeys plus basement and attic, and three bays wide. Extra flourishes include the cast-iron balconies and red rubbed brick dressings to the windows. The proportioning is typically Palladian, emphasis on the first floor (or piano nobile) reflecting its premier status. The windows are one-and-a-half times the height of those on the ground floor and twice that of the second-floor windows. The gap between the windows (width-wise) is almost exactly the same as the width of the windows. All to maximise the aesthetic appeal. Grade II listed.

A happy ensemble, early C19th houses, including the two nearest the camera, forming a sandwich with a filling of four houses of c1778. Grade II listed. Camberwell Grove is almost exclusively Georgian. Development appears to have been piecemeal with a variety of schemes.

An unusual composition for late Georgian developers - six pairs of houses joined by single-bay links containing entrances. Grade II listed. Camberwell Grove is almost exclusively Georgian. Development appears to have been piecemeal with a variety of schemes.

A fine late C18th terrace, each house of three bays and three storeys plus basement. Grade II listed. Camberwell Grove is almost exclusively Georgian. Development appears to have been piecemeal with a variety of schemes - this is probably the only sizeable continuous terrace.

The A-Z labels the building on the left 'Univ.' The inscription over the door reads: Grammar School / Founded by Edward Wilson / Vicar of Camberwell A.D. 1615 / Rebuilt A.D. 1882.

Nearest are a pair of unusually lofty early C19th houses, four storeys being one more than the more typical three. Characteristic good Georgian window proportioning. They also have entrance bays at the side. Nice continuous cast-iron balcony. The remainder is also early C19th, but of more typical dimensions. Grade II listed. Camberwell Grove is almost exclusively Georgian. Development appears to have been piecemeal with a variety of schemes.

Behind the camera is a school.

A pair of early C19th villas, each with arched ground floor windows and good fanlights. Grade II listed. Camberwell Grove is almost exclusively Georgian. Development appears to have been piecemeal with a variety of schemes.

The inscription on the nameplate, below the red step, is almost undecipherable but the outer inscription appears to read 'Chapman' 'Camberwell'. The letterboxes, numbered 1 and 2, must indicate that the house is divided into flats.
