Description
View of three-storey semi-detached properties with basements at 64-70 Wiltshire Road, Brixton, from the corner with Villa Road. The vacant plot is the former site of numbers 58-62. Steps lead up to pillared porches, and there are bay windows on the ground floor. Cars parked in Villa Road. Wiltshire Road was the main axis of Angell Town, an estate of Italianate style houses for the wealthy laid out in the 1850s and 1860s. They were demolished in the 1970s and the site now forms part of the site of Loughborough Community Centre and Max Roach Park, named after the African-American jazz drummer who visited in 1986.
