Fulham Court Estate.
The Borough Council's Housing Scheme at Fulham
Court consists of 369 flats and 16 lock-up shops, in nine
blocks, one block being in four and the others in five
storeys. The committee primarily responsible for the
initiation and carrying out of the scheme was the Housing
Committee under the chairmanship of Sir Thomas
Richardson. The erection of the flats on this estate
constitutes a big contribution to the housing problem in
Fulham.
The Architect was Mr. A. F. Holden, M.Inst.C.E.,
the Borough Engineer and Surveyor.
