I like Georgian townhouses. Their appeal to modern eyes is understandable: they are elegant; both comparatively rare (swathes of them having been demolished in post-War slum clearances) and quintessentially London; they tend to be in desirable central neighbourhoods; and, like fossil fuels, their supply is finite.
Beyond that though, is there anything that makes it a housing type worth replicating in the 21st century, as Labour are promising to do should they win the next election?
