View of Ferry Lane
Description
This view shows the section of Ferry Lane from the riverside bend leading towards Kew Green, in the Kew Green conservation area of Richmond-upon-Thames. There are tall brick boundary walls to both sides. To the left, behind a sign board and the trees just coming into leaf, is Layton House, a 1950s building now the Kew Green Preparatory School, beyond which is a single-storey school building, since removed, and the rear of the pair of late-eighteenth century houses at 59-61 Kew Green that were Grade II listed in 1950; listing number 1065401. Beyond the wall to the right is a building in the grounds of the Royal Botanic Gardens which appears to be of similar age and design as Layton House. Thought to have housed the Commonwealth Mycological Institute, it has since been demolished and replaced by the twenty-first-century Herbarium and Library wing, designed by Edward Cullinan Architects. Some temporary signs and bollards indicate roadworks are taking place and a Triumph 1300 is parked at the roadside.
