Houses in Downshire Hill
Description
View of 7- 8 Downshire Hill, Hampstead. Grade II listed pair of semi-detached early nineteenth-century villas in Regency Gothic style. Number 7 was home to Martin Shaw (1875-1958), English composer, conductor, and (in his early life) theatre producer who wrote the hymns All Things Bright and Beautiful and Morning Has Broken. It was also the home of Edward Henry Gordon Craig (born Edward Godwin), English modernist theatre practitioner and scenic designer. Craig was the son of actress Dame Ellen Terry. The novelist and biographer Elizabeth Jenkins (1905-2010) lived at 8 Downshire Hill, when her father bought the house in the 1930s until her death.
