floor right, glazed. Upper floors have continuous strips of
large pane sliding windows, those at 1st floor with round
tie-plates above and 2nd floor slightly recessed. Right hand

HISTORICAL NOTE: a pioneer work of the Modern Movement in the
UK. Connell and Ward were early admirers of Le Corbusier;
Lucas, similarly influenced and frustrated by conventional
builders, had set up his own company to develop ideas for
reinforced concrete. The three worked as a team from 1933, for
six years producing a series of houses that no contemporary
firm could match.
