The particular peculiarity of the Richmond houses is that they have one flat on the ground floor of what passes at first glance for two houses and two upstairs, each with their own entrance.</div>

It's probably just two flats split as up/down rather than maisonettes<br>
split front/back or left/right. Something like a Tyneside flat:<br>

<div dir="auto">I'm aware of quite a number of late Victorian/ early Edwardian properties in London which are similar in construction to the Tyneside flats. Locations of which I'm aware of are: South Ealing (S side of Darwin Road), West Ealing (N of station),
Bounds Green (S of North Circular). There may be some also in Brentford just S of the Ealing border.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">I think these are generally 1 bedroom flats with a living room at the front, bedroom at the rear, kitchen in the return. Can't quite recall where the bathroom was (estate agent particulars will help). </div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">I've seen three storey system-built social housing with a ground floor flat and two flats (not sure arrangement) above (often with access to upper flats via a bridge over yards belonging to the GF flat). The ones on St Ann's are terraces with
21 flats, so I've tended to map them as building=apartments.</div>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">Regular two-storey maisonette blocks containing 4 single-level flats have been built since the 30s: entrance arrangements vary. The one I used to own had a small combined extension at the side for both front doors. This improved access to the
staircase for the upper flat by adding a small lobby. </div>
