Semi-Detached Houses, New Eltham - Sidcup
Most of the housing in this quarter of the square was built in the mid-late 1930s, and most is semi-detached, often extended now from 3 to 4 bedrooms. The original very durable concrete (with pebble-chip) road surface remains, patched occasionally. The original grey 1930s heavy paving slabs have been relaid after cable TV installed their pipes and other equipment. The pink ones are post-war replacements for cracked slabs. Parking restrictions and yellow lines appeared in the 1990s.

Semi-Detached Houses, New Eltham - Sidcup
The housing in this quarter of the square is almost exclusively semi-detached, built in the mid-late 1930s, with a lot of the chalet style buildings fashionable at the time. Some were sold in 1937 for £700 (2007 price un-extended, around £300,000) The road surface (apart from patches) is still the original hard concrete packed with tiny stones and pebbles. Many of these three bedroom semis have been extended.
