Angell Terrace, Brixton, 1898  

View of Angell Terrace from the South Gate.

'The terrace stands upon the red Washway, the footpath that was by the side of the little River Effra', photograph and caption by Alice Walker, 1898.

Named after the Angell family who had owned parcels of land in the area since the late seventeenth century, Angell Town was laid out in the 1850s on land that was previously known as Stiles Farm.

Angell Terrace was the showpiece of the estate, completed in 1868.
