Design & Build Contractor in Highbury

Working in Highbury

Victorian terraced houses dominate — wide three- and four-bedroom through-terraces and a number of substantial semi-detached houses around Highbury Fields. Many have been extended but significant loft and basement conversion potential remains.

Parts of Highbury lie within Islington conservation areas and the Highbury Fields area has character-area protections. Party-wall agreements are standard in the terraced streets. Islington Council takes a positive approach to well-designed rear extensions but scrutinises anything affecting the front elevation.

Access note: Residential permit zones throughout. The Highbury Fields area has some access constraints during events. Contractors familiar with Islington CPZ working practices are at an advantage.
