Homes in Kilburn

Kilburn grew in the 1800s on coal, with a colliery sunk in 1876 and 1877, brickworks on Brickyard Lane and a glassworks, and hosiery made here too. The pit closed in the late 1960s. Kilburn gained conservation area status in 1993, and its oldest buildings include Kilburn Hall, from the 1600s, and Top Farmhouse, a 16th-century cruck-framed house. Older houses here were wired long after they went up, often in stages. Extensions and later conversions add circuits of their own, so we test the whole house before quoting.
