Elegant West End

Tributes to Victorian design

This noble terrace is a sign

Its grand façade in pride displays

The skill and craft of earlier days

 

Local denizens have ensured

These mature buildings still endure

A credit to all who have taken care

Of a legacy beyond compare

 

As generations sought to reserve

This grand inheritance to preserve

And whether there we do reside

Or simply pass along beside

 

To designers, builders and architects

Your contribution we respect

And gladly we would thus acclaim

Your gifts which bring the West End fame
