The development of the Grosvenor Estate in Mayfair during the late nineteenth century saw the installation of some very fancy terracotta panels carrying the street name and date of construction. This example from Chapel Place North dating to 1893 is typical. Bottom right of the panel the name of the architect responsible is inscribed in the bricks; Albert John Bolton of Lincolns Inn Fields. The current address of this property is 29-32 South Audley Street.

I went to London yesterday to see what terracotta might be around and I was not disappointed. This lovely piece is from Mayfair and in the brickwork underneath is the name of the architect responsible for the building - Albert John Bolton of Lincolns Inn Fields.
