INTERIOR: not inspected.
HISTORICAL NOTE: originally planned as Bertie Circus, the
houses were constructed to face inwards with the present
garden facades as the main fronts. The Board of Health Map of
1852 indicates that Nos 15 and 17 Beauchamp Hill (qv) was
included in that architectural scheme. When laid out c1825
Clarendon Crescent was known as Back Lane, however DG
Squirhill's Survey of 1838 shows it with its present name,
presumably by which time the scheme for a Circus had been
abandoned.
The original scheme for Nos 1-9 (consecutive) Clarendon
Crescent (qqv) and Nos 15 and 17 Beauchamp Hill (qv) with its
series of full-height bows is best seen from the rear (or
garden) facade.
