Seen across the lake of the hall, formed in a landscaping scheme by Capability Brown, 1756 - the sham bridge is thought to date from this time ( list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1163576 ). For the church, see list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1244942 . The lodge - described by the Buildings of England as "super-picturesque" - dates from 1908-9 ( list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1163611 ).

Street of shops with accommodation over, designed by Thomas Cubitt, and built c.1822 for the Bedford Estate, on its border, says the Buldings of England: London, 4 (1998), p.330, "so that the shops would not disturb the prime residential areas". As the English Heritage listing notes, "this architecturally coherent and well surviving group of shopfronts, with Duke's Road , is an exceptional composition". List description (S side): list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1379210 .

Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens from 1911 as the headquarters of the British Theosophical Society, with which his wife was closely involved, but incomplete when requisitioned by the War Office during World War I and completed for the British Medical Association in 1923-5. Presumably a carved tablet was intended above the central window, with carved features at the ends of the façade, but these have never been executed and have been left as what the listing calls "boasted work": list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1378968 .

Terraces by the builder James Burton (1761-1837), begun in 1809 and completed by 1820, face each other across the street. The buildings closing the street at its southern end are not listed and do not feature in the Survey of London ; they appear to be recent "contextual" infill.
