BRIEF HISTORY:
One of a terrace of four houses, part of a group of 26, built in 1929 by the Air Ministry's Directorate of Works and Buildings. Painted brickwork with cavity walls and slate roofs.

The terrace is arranged in a short straight line on the west side of Vincent Square at its southern end. Each house is entered from the right.

In later years the houses were restored by a Housing Association as part of the renovation of the entire square.

It is stated that the houses form part of the best preserved group of married quarters relating to a nationally important historic aviation site.

Six of the houses were demolished following the 1940 raids (Since rebuilt), Biggin Hill became known as the most famous fighter station in the world, primarily through its role in the Battle of Britain
