Fisherton Street Estate

Fisherton Street

The Fisherton Street Estate Conservation Area is one of Westminster's smallest. It was constructed in 1924 to a design by HV Ashley and Winterton Newman on behalf of the former St Marylebone borough council. At the time of its construction, it represented innovative practice in social housing, each flat being equipped with its own toilet and bathroom.

Today it retains its peaceful, residential character. It consists of seven rectangular blocks of flats of equal height and bulk arranged to form two attractive courtyards, with small single-storey buildings at the corner of the set of blocks. The flats are large red-brick neo-Georgian constructions with tall mansard roofs.

Fisherton Street was designated a conservation area in November 1990.
