Title
Cottages in Parkfields
Description
Located in a narrow lane in a comparatively secluded area of suburban Putney, Parkfields Cottages were built by Henry Scarth (1807-1871) in the mid nineteenth century. Originally semi-detached, they are stock brick with slate roofs and are listed locally. This view shows 3 Parkfields, one the pair of cottages on the west side of the lane which, unlike the other cottages, have a gable with a pair of attic windows. The distinctive shape of this pair of cottages at the entrance to the lane gives a sense of enclosure. Its brick frontage is part-covered by a tall climber, and the single-storey whitewashed side entrance extension has since been further extended upwards to the first floor. The Parkfields conservation area of Wandsworth extends beyond the lane, incorporating commercial premises of similar age where Parkfields joins the Upper Richmond Road, and the Victorian villas across the road to the east, which are more typical of the locality.
