Abstract:
In October 2017 Archaeology South-East carried out a historic buildings record (Historic England Level 4) of the no. 15 and no. 17, High Road, Ickenham, London. The work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting, in preparation of the demolition of the existing buildings on the site to allow the development, and the construction of residential units. The semi-detached houses have their origins in the early 1900's, when London was rapidly expanding and many small outlaying towns and villages, such as Ickenham, became part of the suburban sprawl. The construction of a railway station in Ickenham in 1904 meant that the area became a viable living location for those who worked in the city. Raising accommodation standards and the removal of tenements saw the construction of terraced housing such as these buildings in their thousands, provided for the working classes. The houses would have provided modern accommodation for their occupants, allowing some degree of social mobility. The addition of the shop frontage to no.17 gives a glimpse of the enterprising spirit found in many of the time as people saw the chance to improve their standing. This adaptation of no. 17 to a retail location and the need for a larger living/ business space ultimately lead to the combination of the two properties on the site, until they fell out of use.
