Primrose Hill is a village of smaller Victorian terraces, facing the park. Fronts are painted, and front gardens are short. Many houses are now flats.
Here the front is the part most guarded. A 1983 Article 4 direction controls front alterations on the houses Camden lists.
It reaches front walls, hard standings and painting brickwork seen from the street. A small change can need planning.
So a Primrose Hill design usually works inside and at the back. Policy D1 asks it to respect local character.
We have not built here yet. Our nearest work is a listed Marylebone apartment, and a North London house.
