The south-east London area of Blackheath, named for its darker appearance compared to the surrounding green fields by the Thames, has long been associated with middle-class living. From the 18th century onwards, the area saw the gradual development of high-quality housing, a tradition that continued well into the twentieth century.
This guide highlights Blackheath’s rich architectural landscape, including the significant contribution of Span Developments—one of England’s most important post-war private developers—as well as individual houses by leading modernist architects such as Peter Moro, Patrick Gwynne, and Walter Greaves.
Presented as a folded map, the guide combines a clear walking route with insightful commentary, offering a deeper understanding of the area’s architectural heritage.///Description
Perambulations is a series of carefully curated and informative neighbourhood architecture walks and cycle rides created by Stefi Orazi. Featuring illustrations from Jay Cover, each guide is litho printed in two colours using plant-based inks on FSC-certified paper.
