Historic site in West London, England
Debenham House (or Peacock House ) at 8 Addison Road Holland Park district of Kensington and Chelsea , W14 . Built in the Arts and Crafts style by the architect Halsey Ricardo , it is a Grade I listed building.[1]
History [ edit ]
The house was designed in 1905 for department store owner Ernest Ridley Debenham .[2] [2]
Architecture [ edit ]
Debenham House combines an Italianate exterior with an Arts and Crafts interior. Both are richly decorated. The house is clad in Royal Doulton Carrara ware with green and blue Burmantofts bricks. Ricardo favoured polychromy for its design effects, but it also served a practical purpose, as the glazing resisted the aging effects of the polluted London air. The critic Jonathan Meades described the house as "structurally stodgy – an alderman dressed as a hippy."[3]
The interior contains tiles designed by William De Morgan , a mosaic dome painted by Gaetano Meo , ceilings painted by Ernest Gimson and stained glass by Edward Schroeder Prior .[4] classical mythology . There are marble and tile fireplaces and mahogany bookcases with decorated with Art Nouveau inserts in wood and mother of pearl . The light switches were made by the Birmingham Guild of Handicraft .[3]
Filming location [ edit ]
The house has been used as a film location, including; The Wings of the Dove (1997 film) [citation needed Secret Ceremony [5] What the Butler Saw Spooks [4] Agatha Christie's Poirot Lord Edgware Dies Cards on the Table [6] [7] Trottie True [citation needed and the BBC's Mrs. Bradley Murder Mysteries.[citation needed
