The charming little enclave of Victorian cottages known as the Glebe Estate since the field on which it was built was ‘glebe land’ – land which had been formally assigned to the local church as part of the incumbent’s benefice in 1840.
Fraser Street, Reckitt Road and Quick Road take their names from these developers. Building work started in 1871 and by 1901 a total of 470 houses had been built. They were all leased out on 99 year leases. In the early 1970s, when the leases expired, freehold houses on the Glebe Estate began to come on to the open market and the potential of these pretty, but often now dilapidated, cottages began.
The Glebe Estate is located south of Chiswick High Road, north of the A4/M4, west of Devonshire Road and east of Dukes Avenue
