Architects and Engineers in Kenton
Local knowledge of Kenton's interwar Metroland suburb, from first feasibility conversation through to a finished project.
Living and Building in Kenton
Kenton was a small hamlet until its station opened in 1912, and in the 1920s its population grew roughly ten-fold as Metroland housing estates spread across the fields.
Diagram X brings AEC (Architecture, Engineering and Construction) together for homeowners across the interwar semis and terraces that make up almost the whole suburb.
Planning in Kenton
Most of Kenton is uniform interwar housing, so planning questions usually concern side and rear extensions, loft conversions and front boundaries.
Kenton straddles the Harrow and Brent boundary, so confirm which council and which rules apply to the exact property.
Refurbishing in Kenton
Across the area's interwar semis, most interiors have had little meaningful updating in decades, so refurbishment starts from open, light-filled layouts and modern performance.
A genuinely worthwhile period feature earns its place when retained, but a confidently modern result inside is always the starting assumption.
Construction in Kenton
Hipped roofs, generous rear gardens and rows of near-identical neighbours make party wall agreements and careful loft design central.
We plan for these from the outset, so Kenton's Metroland streets and its individual homes are both well served.
