Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A couple of original doors, and one in the Warner Estate colour scheme poke out from the arches. Two doors per archway to these maisonettes built c 1895- 1908 to house workers in the booming industrial area along the River Lea in Walthamstow and Leyton. The development was done by Sir Courtenay Warner (Thomas CT Warner, d 1934) who became High Sherriff of Essex, and MP for Lichfield 1896-1923.

A more upmarket estate was laid out at Woodford Green much later in the early 1930s - the Highams Estate Courtenay Warner inherited his father's estate of Walthamstow Manor of Higham Benstead which had been bought in 1849, and continued developing it and associated lands. Names of the streets were after people places associated with the Warner family, especially in Suffolk. The Warner Estate Company Ltd was registered in 1891 with its own building arm, Law Land Building Department Ltd. This particular development followed the opening of the nearby Blackhorse Road railway station in 1894, when the skilled working classes were attracted to industry north of Ferry Lane. The name LLOYD derives from Edward Lloyd who had an extensive estate throughout Walthamstow and which, I suspect, part was bought by Warner for his developments. Lloyd also owned Water house, formerly the home of William Morris, which, together with its grounds, was gifted by Lloyds's family to the people of the borough as Lloyd Park.
