A distinctive architectural style of this period consisted of homes with pebbledashed walls, recessed porches, and mock timber framing, inspired by the Arts and Crafts designs. The 1930s semi is one of the most common housing styles you see in Britain today and is recognised by a hipped roof and curved bay windows.
The countryside was becoming more accessible in this period due to increased railways and tram lines. The land running along these links was much more affordable than in the cities so many semi-detached properties were built here.
