In the 1960s a plan for an urban motorway would have destroyed the houses fronting Coldharbour Lane in the Loughborough Park area, just west of the junction. Southwyck House, opposite the Moorland Road villas and known as the Barrier Block, was designed to shield housing from the raised road. Lambeth's 2025 conservation area appraisal says the motorway proposals were abandoned in the mid-1970s.
The Loughborough Park villas
The houses that survived are older than the railway viaduct and the East Brixton station of 1866. The appraisal says the land was developed in the 1840s and 1850s, first by Lord Holland and then his widow Lady Holland, and that the architect Henry Currey is the likely planner of the road layout. The detached and semi-detached houses on Moorland, Loughborough, Barrington and Millbrook Roads and the south side of Coldharbour Lane were built for a middle-class market. Most of the Moorland Road houses are detached villas of two storeys over semi-basements.
After the motorway plans were dropped, the appraisal says, Lambeth's borough architect Ted Hollamby oversaw the refurbishment of more of the houses as council housing, and the conservation area was designated in 1981. A villa split into flats can put the kitchen in the semi-basement or up two flights; either way the racks, trays and side runners come out for a separate soak and clean, while the cavity, the fan cover and the door glass are degreased by hand indoors.
Flats in houses and post-war blocks
The appraisal records that much of the Victorian housing nearby was cleared after the war for the London County Council's Loughborough Estate, built in 1954 to 1957 with 11-storey blocks north of Coldharbour Lane. In Herne Hill and Loughborough Junction ward, which takes in the station, 27.0% of the 6,564 households at the 2021 Census lived in part of a converted or shared house and 37.2% in a purpose-built block. 38.2% owned, 31.4% rented from a social landlord and 28.9% rented privately.
Conversions and older council flats tend to have compact kitchens with a 60cm oven. Where a kitchen has been refitted with a tall housing, there may be two ovens stacked, which is priced as a double.

Parking on Lambeth's streets
Loughborough Junction is in Lambeth, even where the postcode says SE5; Southwark starts further east, towards Denmark Hill. Lambeth has 24 controlled parking zones, mostly in the north of the borough; single yellow lines follow the time plate beside them. The appraisal notes that the villas on the east side of Barrington Road have no forecourt parking or crossovers, so a van needs a street bay. Check the signs on your road and tell us the house number when you book.

What customers tell us
I would certainly recommend this service, very efficient and good value for money. The young man did a great job and even cleaned the kitchen floor. Thank you.
Arrived promptly and did a great job cleaning the oven, hob and extractor. They look like new now and for a very reasonable price too.
Very satisfied with the service. They were slightly late at first but I got a call from customer service to let me know, and it was all fine. The oven man, as he called himself, arrived and worked very hard for a couple of hours. My oven now looks like it has never been used.
