Cornwall Mews West is entered through a huge brick arched entrance and then turns left. It is a cul-de-sac with two-storey mews houses mainly painted and most have roof gardens.

It is a very quiet and private backwater and it is hard to believe that one is only a few minutes walk from Gloucester Road.

This is part of the Broadwood Estate.

To provide stabling for the main houses in Cornwall Gardens, a number of mews were constructed as part of the Cornwall Gardens development.

The Broadwood family who owned the land awarded the contract for building much of the north side of Cornwall Gardens and part of the south side to the partnership of Thomas Guy Welchman and Robert Gale. Welchman and Gale built Cornwall Mews West at the far north west corner. Most of their work in this area was carried out between 1871 and 1876.
