This section will look at a development that Sir John Betjeman, who founded the Victorian Society, called “the most significant suburb built in the last century, probably the most significant in the Western world.” Writing in the Daily Telegraph in August 1960, Betjeman's description of Bedford Park echoed the great architectural writer Herman Muthesius who, as far back as 1906, wrote: “There was at the time virtually no development that could compare in artistic charm with Bedford Park... and herein lies the immense importance of Bedford Park in the history of the English house."
