Bertram Cottages have for many years been known as cottages of unique character and charm on the edge of the busy commercial centre. This special character was recognised by the Merton Council when it declared the Bertram Cottages Conservation Area in February 1984.
These cottages were designed and built by Henry Charles Forde, architect and engineer. Mr Forde was a leading citizen of Wimbledon, with an international reputation in the field of submarine telecommunications.
You can and should explore the area of the cottages, you might even see a lovely fox!
Hope you have fun.
