Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Tudor House, Petts Wood This large house, on the corner of Birchwood Road and Chislehurst Road, was built in 1930 for his own occupation by Leslie Carter-Clout (one of a number of builders involved in the development of Petts Wood), to a design by Leonard Culliford. Leonard Culliford was employed by Basil Scruby, the man behind the concept of Petts Wood as a green field "garden suburb", to provide the general layout of the area and to supervise builders and architects to ensure that they worked within Basil Scruby's concept. Tudor House was an attempt to create a country house in a suburban setting, and won a "House of the Year" award from the National House Builders Association. For part of the second world war it served as the officers' mess for the Royal Corps of Signals.
In 1988 a proposal was made for its replacement by four detached houses, which was refused, and although a suggestion by the local residents' association that it should be listed was rejected by Bromley Borough Council, it now falls within a designated conservation area. |
