Description


TQ 2978 NE and 3078 NW CITY OF WESTMINSTER JOHN ISLIP STREET, SWl
105/28; 106/6
Mulready House, Millbank
5.2.70 Estate
G.V. II
LCC housing estate block of flats. 1897-1902, part of one of the first and
most significant of the LCC estates by the Architects' Department housing
section under Owen Fleming and, in this particular case, R. Minton Taylor
who was probably responsible for the estate layout radiating from the
rectangular public garden. Red brick with slight stone dressings, tiled
roofs. Humane, Arts and Crafts socialist housing design inspired by Webb,
Lethaby and Smith and Brewer, with "Queen Anne" and Northern European
features, all executed to a high standard. Shallow L plan block with south
wing at right angles to John Islip Street, with courtyard elevations. 5
storey, gabled pavilion-wings and centre break, and 4-storeys and attic
between them. Cornice-hooded recessed porches to south courtyard.
Segmental arched flush framed glazing bar sashes, tripartite on ground
floor, grouped to express interior distribution. Dormers above overhanging
eaves. The block balances its twin Landseer House in the group south of
the garden. (c.f. Boundary Street Estate, Tower Hamlets).
