Title
Houses in St James's Gardens
Description
Front elevation of 9-10 St James's Gardens, Notting Hill, on the western side of the square. Part of the Norland Estate, these houses were built by Robert Adkin between 1848-9, to the designs of John Barnett for the St James's Square Benefit Building Society Notting Hill, after speculative developer Charles Richardson experienced financial difficulties. A three-storey terrace with basements. Round headed windows to the ground floor with stone balconies and low cast-iron trellis balustrades. Steps lead to entrance porches and cast-iron railings enclose the basement areas. Numbers 9-13 are Grade II listed, number 1226536. The houses are in a poor state of repair. A van is parked on the street. The 1851 census shows that annuitants or 'fundholders', living on private incomes were the largest group of householders, most of them women. Most had resident servants.
