Castelnau can easily be accessed from the north via Hammersmith Bridge and is near the South Circular Road. Castelnau was established in 1827, following the opening of Hammersmith Bridge. Before that, the area was reached exclusively by river. Major Charles Lestock Boileau played a significant role in its early development, employing architect William Laxton to design the first homes, including Castelnau House and Castelnau Villas. By 1868, the area had grown to include about 140 houses and around 800 residents. Over the next 60 years, further housing developments, including the Castelnau Estate, saw the population increase to over 5,000 by 1928. Housing in Castelnau reflects its historical growth, from historic properties with unique architectural details to modern developments. Maintaining the roofs of these properties is essential, especially with the impact of London’s varying climate.
