Numbers 26 to 52 and Attached Garden Wall

Numbers 26 to 52 and the attached garden wall form a group of artisans' cottages located at the eastern end of Asmuns Place in the Hampstead Garden Suburb, dating to 1908. The design is attributed to Barry Parker and Raymond Unwin, with possible input from Charles Wade, an office assistant known for numerous designs within the early suburb. The cottages are constructed of brick in Flemish and mixed bonds, with brick and tile dressings, and tile roofs with swept eaves. They are arranged in a U-shaped plan, responding to the layout of numbers 25 to 43 to the west, with a deeper courtyard. The design is broadly similar to the opposite group of cottages.

The architectural style is Vernacular Revival, featuring a stretched double-ended hall house form with a stilted facing gable on the central line, above a round-arched cross passage, and gable endings facing the courtyard. The building displays a rough bilateral symmetry, adjusted for a sloping site from south to north, and the treatment of first-floor windows in the north wing as half dormers. The eaves have exposed rafters that run continuously to the centre gable. The main section has ten windows, with wings of seven windows each. The left gable, facing an end unit, is three windows wide, while the right gable is a single window wide. Ground-floor windows are segmental arched, with tile insets above the arches. First-floor windows are flat arched. Original design casement windows are present throughout. A first-floor oriel window, flanked by square lights and linked by a weathering detail, is centrally positioned, with the same motif repeated on the centre of the side units. Canopy porches cover the entrances to numbers 26, 28, 34, 42, 46, and 50, with the entrance to number 38 located in the return of the cross passage, and the entrance to number 46 set within a shallow round-arched recess, partly filled in by a late 20th-century segmental canopy. A skylight, also from the late 20th century, is situated on the roof's front slope. Half dormers with catslide roofs are present on the left wing, with the returns of numbers 44 and 46 weatherboarded. Original design doors are found on numbers 26, 28, 34, 42, 46, and 50. Ridge stacks are present on party walls and the rear slope of the hall wing. The listing also includes the brick garden wall at the rear of number 26 and attached to number 24.
