Title
Cottages in Thorn Passage
Description
Thorn Passage in the conservation area of the same name in the Westfield area of Barnes in the London Borough of Richmond-upon-Thames presents an example of late Victorian model village estate planning. This view shows a row of terraced cottages at 11-16 Thorn Passage, generally little-altered today and, together with the perpendicularly arranged row of cottages at numbers 1-10 just of view to the right of the picture, are all listed locally as Buildings of Townscape Merit. The cottages surround an array of well-planted and maintained gardens with picket fences delineating each garden's boundary. The garden plot is triangular in shape, its remaining boundary formed by Thorn Passage itself, shown to the left of view. An estate agent sign indicates one of the properties has been sold by SCOTT. Thorn Passage and Beverley Path are the remains of an historic track that once connected Mortlake and Putney across fields, once fording Beverley Brook and bisected by the construction of the railway line in 1849.
