The architects of The Promenade had worked in the office of Parker and Unwin, designers of much of Hampstead Garden Suburb, and were influenced by the latter's designs for comparable blocks on Finchley Road. The Promenade was designed in a richly detailed 'English Wrennaisance' style which drew on a range of period sources, in particular the Queen Anne style.Source: English HeritageListed building text is © Crown Copyright.
