Clement steel windows and doors projects in the Hampstead Garden Suburb, a London Conservation Area
Today, the Suburb comprises around 5,000 properties in total and is home to some 16,000 people. In 1968 it was designated as a Conservation Area and the Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust was set up to maintain the character and amenity of properties within the Suburb. The Trust operates a management scheme which requires freeholders to get prior approval before altering the external appearance of their properties, meaning that the Suburb survives relatively intact and still reflects the original vision of Barnett and master planner Raymond Unwin.
Replacing windows and doors in Hampstead Garden Suburb
A lot of the properties in Hampstead Garden Suburb have original steel framed windows and the Trust stipulates that replacement windows must be very similar to the originals. Clement Windows Group has two main window ranges which are suitable for these properties and have been used in the projects that we’ve completed in the Suburb to date.
Our Brooking range of steel windows was developed in conjunction with the Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust and other conservation bodies and takes its name from internationally renowned collector and architectural historian Charles Brooking. The range is particularly suitable for high value refurbishment projects or specialist architectural situations where a particular ‘putty fronted’ system is required.
