Nominations Not Proposed for the Local List Nominations not proposed for the local list These nominations were received as part of the process of updating the local list. They were reviewed and it was decided that these nominations did not warrant inclusion on the local list. An explanation of why this decision was made is included on under the entry for the building, site or structure. 1 Asset Details Description Address: College House, College House was built in 1992, Chiswick Mall architecturally in keeping with other houses in the neighbouring terrace constructed in 1875 Significance: Architectural, to the West. It stands in the gap left between Group/ Townscape Field House and Thames Bank at the turn-of- the-century when there was a plan to build a Reference Number: N01 road bridge over the Thames here. Recommended for inclusion? Yes / No The building, while nice, did not meet the criteria. While it blends in unobtrusively and takes inspiration from the houses around it, it does not in itself have architectural significance to warrant inclusion on the local list. Address: Said House, Said House evolved from a small C18th gardener’s Chiswick Mall cottage in the Victorian period. It was enlarged and ‘Georgianised’ in the 1930s. It is unclear whether Significance: Architectural, this was detailed by the designer Mrs Darcy Braddell or by Albert Randall Wells (1877–1942), Historical, Group/Townscape, an English Arts and Crafts architect. It was then Social that the ‘galleon’ west wing was created. The extensive 1930s makeover which included the giant Reference Number: N02 curved plate-glass window on the first floor was carried out for the actor-manager Sir Nigel Playfair (1874-1935), who was manager of the Lyric Theatre, Hammersmith, and lived here between 1931 and 1934. Viscount Davidson, Chairman of the Conservative Party (1927-30) and later Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, lived here from 1956 with his wife, a Member of Parliament who became an early life peeress as Baroness Northchurch of Chiswick. The house was featured as the 'home' for the contestants of the first series of the television programme The Apprentice in 2005. Recommended for inclusion? No The building, while handsome, did not meet the criteria. While it does have architectural quality, it did not meet the criteria for historical, group/townscape or social significance. While a number of interesting people have inhabited the house, however it was not felt that satisfied the social or historical significance criteria. Nothing indicated that it had group/townscape character beyond forming part of the conservation area. It is still a positive contributor to the conservation area, however it does not merit local listing. 2 Asset Details Description Address: Group of 20th This group of 20th C. houses comprise No. 6 Century building on Church Burlington Lane, which together with Russett Street, including 6 Burlington House, No. 21 and 20 Church St. (The Studio) Lane, Russett House, 21 present a unified grouping at the entrance to Church Street, The Studio (20 Church Street at the Hogarth roundabout, Church St) complementing the much older buildings on the eastern side, and providing a much- Significance: Architectural, needed coherence at the north end of Church Historical Street after many of the original buildings were demolished for road widening initiatives Reference Number: N03 from the 1920s to the 1950s. Recommended for inclusion? Yes / No This group of buildings did not meet the criteria. While harmonious with the character of the conservation area they do not meet the criterial for architectural significance. These buildings also do not historical significance. Asset Details Description Address: Wembury House, 13 13 Grange Road stands on the head of the Grange Road corner of the cul de sac opposite the terrace, reflecting its style in a sympathetic way. The Significance: Architectural, house is two storeys plus accommodation in Group/Townscape the roof-space, in red brick and clay roof tiles, it retains timber windows. Staggered plan Reference Number: N04 form with canted element incorporating two storey brick detail projecting from the elevation addressing the corner of Grange Road opposite the entrance to Gunnersbury Station. Recommended for inclusion? Yes / No This building does not have the same architectural quality as the other houses on Grange Road which were recommended for inclusion. The building is still makes a positive contribution to the character of the conservation area. 3 Asset Details Description Address: Connolly's Bar, Smaller red brick late Victorian public house Chiswick High Road with an interesting gable decorated with round whorls and distinctive stonework, in which the Significance: Architectural, original pub name THE ROBIN HOOD is Historical, Group/Townscape, carved. Originally operated as the Robin Hood Social and Little John and opened in this location in 1897. The building stands out from the Reference Number: N05 shopping parades on either side, which are generally plainer in style and it has a higher fascia, different floor to ceiling heights and a higher parapet than its neighbours. It thus provides a unique feature within the retail frontage in which it sits. Operated as an LGBT pub during the 1980s/90s, representing part of LGBTQ heritage in West London. Now operates as an Irish pub. Recommended for inclusion? Yes / No The building does not have sufficient architectural quality to be included. It is not a local landmark and does not have group/townscape significance. While its past use as an LGBT pub adds to its significance, it is no longer used in this function which diminishes its social significance. While it does not warrant inclusion on the local list, it does make a positive contribution to the conservation area. Asset Details Description Address: 41 Burlington Road The building is an attractive feature in the townscape and is a good example of the Significance: Architectural, larger Victorian villa development in the Historical, Group/Townscape Conservation Area. It is a three-storey, double-fronted, detached Victorian villa which Reference Number: N06 has two large gables to the front elevation, creating a sense of grandeur. The building’s first appearance on an OS map is in the 1896 edition. Burlington Road was formerly known as Brandenburgh Road and is present in the 1887/8 Kelly’s directory where no. 41 is named “Darna”, the residence of a Charles Murdoch. Recommended for inclusion? Yes / No This building does not meet the criteria for inclusion. The building did not meet the criteria for Historic and Group/Townscape significance. Additionally, the poor quality side extension detracts from the building. It is a conservation area so is protected via this designation and the building makes a positive contribution to the character of the conservation area. 4 Asset Details Description Address: 19-23 (odd) Group of characterful houses. No. 19 is a Wellesley Road distinctive corner house, two storeys in red brick with a Victorian Gothic influence. It dates Significance: Architectural, from the 1890s. There is a two-storey bay Historical, Group/Townscape topped by a distinctive slate tiled turret with cast iron crest on the splayed corner at the Reference Number: N07 junction of Grange Road and Wellesley Road. The top sashes in the arched, timber sliding- sash windows of the bays retain leaded lights and some slates to the turret are in a traditional fish scale shape. Nos. 21 and 23 are a pair of Victorian Gothic houses which form a terrace with No. 19. Recommended for inclusion? Yes / No Although these buildings are handsome, they do not meet the criteria for local listing. They do not have historical significance as set out in the criteria and they do not have group/townscape significance as set out in the criteria. They are, however, positive contributors to the character of the conservation area and protected via this designation. Asset Details Description Address: 25-31 (odd) A group of detached two-storey double fronted Wellesley Road villas, likely built in the 1870s. They reflect the Italianate influence on other residential Significance: Architectural, properties built at the same period in the Historical, Group/Townscape Conservation Area. Orchard House (No. 29) is an exception in that it features a grand Reference Number: N08 projecting porch with windows in each side and a stone balustrade incorporating hollow circles. It has fine ironwork in the fanlight over the timber front door. Orchard House retains a cast iron gate with the name ‘The Orchard’ incorporated. Recommended for inclusion? Yes / No It was felt that this group of houses is of a common type found in Chiswick and did not meet the criteria as set out in the guidance. They are in the Conservation area and are afforded certain protections via this designation. 5 Asset Details Description Address: 164 Duke Road Chiswick's District Rate Book for December 1872 shows a 'House with Coach House etc. Significance: Architectural, located on the Glebe Land' - this is the first Historical, Group/Townscape time such an entry has appeared and is presumed to reflect date of build. Owner and Reference Number: N09 presumed commissioner of this distinctive, one-off Victorian house was Elisha Cornish, a Master Oriental Printer with a business in London. Known to be a churchwarden at St. Alban the Martyr, Holborn in 1873, Elisha Cornish is presumed to have named this house St. Alban's Cottage/House shortly after moving in. This is a distinguished, and probably unique, good quality domestic property, which adds character to its setting and locality. Recommended for inclusion? Yes / No Permission to demolish this building was granted on appeal in 2017. It would therefore not be appropriate to include this on the local list. Asset Details Description Address: 402-406 Chiswick A group of two art deco building. 402 is a High Road narrow three-storey brick built building, with an art deco style pediment.

  • Old Chiswick Protection Society
    Old Chiswick Protection Society Autumn 2020 Newsletter Old Chiswick Protection Society exists to preserve and enhance the amenities of this riverside conservation area. Even the geese are social distancing! [Photograph: David Humphreys] Chairman’s Message As we look back at the last months, the Old Chiswick Conservation Area has become even more precious to many of us who live here, work here or visit. We have seen and spoken with visitors, previously unfamiliar with our environment and its atmosphere and history, who are enjoying it for the first time. Nature carries on here regardless, and our history continues to be relevant and vital to our future. We can't take anything for granted though. It is only with the support of our members' subscriptions and diligent work that we are here today and can be so proud of what has been achieved by the charity over the last 60 years. Old Chiswick could so easily have looked and felt very different: no Chiswick Eyot, with its unique withy beds and nature reserve; houses where Homefields Recreation Ground South is; an entirely different main road into and out of London, sacrificing more historical buildings; post-war housing instead of Georgian houses along Chiswick Mall. Our community has done much to help others this year, and we continue to build relationships with those like Asahi who are new to the area since taking over Fuller’s Brewery, and who have expressed a wish to become part of the community. We look forward to inviting you to join our AGM this year, which will of course be conducted on line, with the very latest advice on meetings.

  • Graves of Artists and Architects Buried There
    Graves of architects and artists in the Chiswick Churchyard and Old Burial Ground A noteworthy feature of the burial ground associated with St Nicholas, Chiswick, is the remarkable number of graves of artists and architects buried there. This article records the graves of an important eighteenth-century architect and garden designer, a respected bricklayer and site manager, two well-regarded Victorian sculptors, and no fewer than six painters and printmakers. In comparison, I know of only one literary figure who was buried there: the maverick Italian poet and patriot, Ugo Foscolo (1778–1827). But perhaps he does not count, since his bones were exhumed in 1871 and returned to Italy for re-burial in Sta Croce, Florence. The churchyard harbours the tomb of only one theatrical figure, Charles Holland (1733–1769), but – as far as I am aware – of not one single composer. Two possible reasons for this bias in favour of the visual arts may be connected with two leading figures in the British eighteenth-century art world who were associated with St Nicholas, Chiswick. Lord Burlington (1694–1753) and William Hogarth (1697–1764) were close contemporaries, although they seldom if ever saw eye to eye. Lord Burlington was the architect of his ground- breaking Chiswick Villa, and he was also a celebrated aesthete and connoisseur. During highly profitable visits to Italy in the second decade, he amassed an important collection of Italian Renaissance and Baroque paintings. Chiswick Villa was designed in part specifically to display this collection, which enhanced Burlington’s status in the British art scene. His semi-permanent residence at Chiswick in the last 20 or so years of his life, and the inheritance of his estate by the Dukes of Devonshire from 1764, perhaps attracted other artists to the area, seeking aristocratic and royal patronage.

  • Georgian Footsteps
    FREE IN GEORGIAN FOOTSTEPS Explore the lanes and paths of 18th century Chiswick Chiswick Parish lies on low land, in a loop of the Thames. The river was an important transport route for people and goods. The ancient Bath Road - today’s High Road - ran east-west across common land in the north, where Chiswick & Acton parishes met. A settlement grew up there, known as Turnham Green, with fashionable houses and mansions, and inns, blacksmiths and farriers to serve travellers. Burlington Lane linked the two riverside villages, Chiswick Town in the east and Strand on the Green to the west. It followed a route along slightly rising ground, probably to stay clear of the risk of flooding from the river. The big estates were The Grove, whose garden by the river was protected by a wall, Sutton Court, the manor house with its own farm and parkland, and Chiswick House. Bath Road Burlington Lane Hogarth’s House Chiswick House The Thames Detail from John Rocque’s Map of London and Environs, surveyed 1741-45, colours added John Donowell’s view, published in the 1750s, shows Lord Burlington’s new villa. It was built after a wing of the 17th century house was destroyed by fire in 1725. You can see what survived of the old house through the trees. Travelling left from this picture the lane crosses the stream which was dammed to create Burlington’s lake in the 1720s, with his Cascade alongside, as shown in this companion print.

  • Strand on the Green Conservation Area
    STRAND ON THE GREEN Boundary: See Map 18 Date of Designation: 07 November 1968 Date of Extension: 2001 Additional protection to the area: SPG (Feb 1997) saved with UDP (Dec 2003). A number of listed buildings, relationship with the River Thames: Thames riverside policies, Metropolitan Open Land, Nature Conservation Area; a number of strategic views into and out of the conservation area are described in the UDP. It also forms part of the setting and visual approach to Kew World Heritage Site. Special Architectural and/or Historic Interest Strand on the Green’s special interest lies in its use of and setting beside the waters edge, with fishermen’s cottages, boat builders’ sheds, public houses, maltings and larger and more elegant private houses added in the late 18th century. The conservation area also includes the various modest but attractively detailed Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing that has made use of the former access road to service and industrial buildings to the rear of the riverside plots, and developed on from there. The narrow alleyways and paths between the path and rear road are of great character in their tiny scale and detailed interest. The overall effect is one of picturesque charm, where a variety of individual buildings but of common interest and scale, with narrow lanes and alleys connecting the riverside with Thames Road add to the leisure value of the pub and restaurant destinations. History Strand on the Green is a small riverside ribbon development – note the consecutive numbering of buildings- of a village from the 18th and early 19th centuries.
