Bloomsbury

Bloomsbury, known for its rich literary and academic history, is predominantly characterized by Georgian and Victorian architecture. Many of the buildings were constructed from the 17th to the 19th centuries, showcasing typical British craftsmanship of those eras. Key features include brick facades, often painted or rendered, sash windows, and often intricate ironwork, particularly in balconies and railings. This area notably houses the University of London's central bodies and several of its colleges, enhancing its architectural diversity with educational buildings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Gray's Inn

Gray's Inn is part of the Honourable Society of Gray's Inn, one of London's four Inns of Court, which have historically been centres for legal education. It features an array of Tudor Revival and neo-Georgian styles, reflecting its longstanding legal heritage. Buildings here are primarily constructed from brick, with some featuring distinctive Elizabethan timbering and plaster façades. Since many structures were rebuilt in the early to mid-20th century due to wartime damage, modern construction techniques such as reinforced concrete and steel frame structures are also present, though they are styled to appear period-appropriate and seamless with older segments.
