St Mark’s Road, situated within the Ladbroke estate, was one of the final areas to be developed. Construction in this area began around 1863, and the terraced houses, typically three stories in height with basements, were built progressively between that time and 1865. Charles Blake was the developer responsible for this project, with Philip Baker, a builder, completing most of the housing work in 1865.
St Mark’s Road endured significant damage during the Second World War. The buildings that stand there today were constructed after the war, with the post-war construction dating back to 1967.
