EDITORS COMMENTS
Oatlands Court, Putney Heath: A Visionary 11-Storey Social Housing Development by London County Council (LCC), 1953 This evocative photograph captures Oatlands Court, an innovative 11-storey point block of flats situated on the Eastern fringe of Putney Heath in London. Designed and developed by the London County Council (LCC) in 1953, this modernist architectural marvel was part of the larger Ackroydon Estate, a forward-thinking housing development in the Roehampton area. The image showcases the sleek, uncluttered lines and clean geometric shapes that define the Oatlands Court building. With its 11 floors, the block of flats stood as a testament to the LCC's commitment to pushing the boundaries of town planning and architectural design in the post-war era. The building's innovative construction and design were intended to provide modern, functional living spaces for families, with each floor accommodating up to five flats. The photograph also highlights the contemporary spirit of the time, with a pram or perambulator parked outside one of the ground-floor flats, emphasizing the residential nature of the development. The Oatlands Court building, with its distinctive architectural features and forward-thinking design, continues to stand as a symbol of the visionary approach to social housing and urban planning that characterized the 1950s in London. The Wandsworth Architects Department, responsible for the design and execution of the project, aimed to create a harmonious living environment that catered to the needs of its residents while also contributing to the overall aesthetic of Putney Heath. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the enduring legacy of Oatlands Court as a pioneering example of modernist architecture and innovative social housing design.
