Wessex Archaeology

3 Gladstone Cottages is situated on Wimborne Avenue in the Norwood Green area to the south of Southall. It was not listed but lies in the Norwood Green Conservation Area, designated in 1969.

The building is rectangular in plan. It gives the appearance of being 19th century in date and first appears on an enclosure map of Norwood in 1816. Windows are replacement PVCu and the stairwell has been reconstructed in twentieth century brick- and block-work. Twentieth century cement render has been stripped from the external walls, and the interior of the property has been gutted. The rear (north) wall and a doorway surround or porch to the front of the building have been demolished, along with an outshot building constructed in the period 1865-95.
