Description

26 and 28 Asmuns Hill are a pair of artisans' cottages built in 1909 by architects Barry Parker and Raymond Unwin. The cottages feature painted pebbledash with a brick plinth in Flemish bond and weatherboarding on the gables of the stair towers. They have a hipped roof covered with tiles, characterized by swept eaves and exposed rafter ends.

The buildings are two storeys high and have a two-window range, with full-height rectangular bays at the corners that house staircases illuminated by clerestorey strips. This paired stair-tower design is common throughout Hampstead Garden Suburb and resembles the nearby cottages at Nos. 136 and 138 Hampstead Way. Each cottage has an axial ridge stack on the party wall and additional stacks on the external walls of the returns.

On both storeys, there are pairs of three-casement windows flanking the party wall. The entrances are located on the returns, set within recessed porches that have canted side walls. A tile storey band runs between the towers. At the rear, there is an outshut with a catslide roof. The garages at the back of each cottage are not of special interest. No. 28 retains its original appearance, featuring an outshut roof that encloses a porch area at the rear entrance, a plain wood upright, and a small dormer on the catslide. The Asmuns Hill group is a significant example of a complete streetscape designed by Parker and Unwin.
