Description
These artisans' cottages were built in 1909-1910 as part of the Hampstead Garden Suburb development, designed by Barry Parker and Raymond Unwin. They are constructed of painted pebbledash, with brick used for the round-arched cross passage at the centre. Weatherboarding clads the gable heads of the half-dormers. The roofs are hipped, with a distinctive, high and upright appearance due to the eaves not being swept. The cottages form an eleven-window range and are in a vernacular revival style, arranged in a bilaterally symmetrical design with dormers on ranges two, three, nine, and ten. The remaining first-floor windows are single or double square lights set under exposed rafters. The entrances have original doors, flanking the central passage and in the outer ranges. Two-light ground-floor windows are aligned with the first-floor dormers. The elevation is identical to that of numbers 83-89 Willifield Way, and together with numbers 77, 79, and 81, they are set back from the pavement to create a green space. The cottages are part of a larger group comprising numbers 57-111 (odd) and 70-124 (even) Willifield Way; the former designed by Parker and Unwin, the latter by Hubbard and Moore. This section of Willifield Way exemplifies a streetscape designed according to Parker and Unwin's principles, featuring stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops.
