Erskine Hill continues with more cottages by Michael Bunney and then to the left there is Chatham Close, a cul-de-sac backing on to Big Wood, designed by T M Wilson (1911), with a mixture of bay windows and gables, and also tile-on-edge arches. Back on Erskine Hill, there is a pair of houses (numbers 16-18) probably by Geoffrey Lucas, and then number 20, a particularly pretty small cottage with a shell-hooded door. At this point Erskine Hill meets Temple Fortune Hill which formed the east-west boundary between the artisans and the individual lease-holders. On the other side of it Erskine Hill continues with the grand series of Lutyens houses culminating in the dome of his Free Church in Central Square.
