Radley Mews

Radley Mews is a cobbled, hidden mews running south of Stratford Road. It runs a bit like a dog leg. Most of the houses are painted white and are traditional, two-storey mews buildings. It is cobbled and very quiet.

Radley Mews was part of the Edwardes Estate.

Samuel Juler Wyand built most of the stable and coach-house buildings in Radley Mews. But Nos. 18-20 were built by William Watts. 

The Wyands had been farmers in Norfolk.  But Samuel Juler Wyand Senior had already set up as a builder in London in the 1850s in Paddington, before going bust in 1855.  Samuel Juler Wyand (junior) then set himself up independently and retired at the age of 37.  He was one of the few builders who didn’t overstretch himself and get ruined by the occasional property downturns.

Alma Studios  was built as a three storey red brick block of flats at the entrance to Radley Mews.  It was built by John Barker and Co at the end of the 19th Century.
