Stanford Villas, Kensington
Four smart villas divided into semis, and dating from 1851-2. "George Smith Stredder built fifteen houses, which were a mixture of detached and semi-detached, known as Stanford Villas." http://www.barrettssolicitors.co.uk/Kensington/streets/stanford_road.htm . "They have stock-brick fronts neatly outlined with continuous bands of diamond relief quoins and deep bands of frieze, now lacking eaves brackets and ground-floor window entablatures for all but Nos. 32–34. The arched-headed doors with pilastered cases are set well back from the road".

Carriage entrance to mews, Cornwall Gardens
This archway at the end of Cornwall Gardens leads into mews behind. When the square was developed from 1866-79 it would have led to servants' quarters and coach houses; now the mews are expensive residences.

Cornwall Gardens
The reverse view looking out through the archway shown on the left of Image, with terraces on the north side of Cornwall Gardens on either side of the junction (closed to vehicles) with Stanford Road. The Metropolitan and District railways runs directly underneath this junction, and its construction in the 1860s disrupted the building of the estates.
