The tour begins on a bright pavement outside Clarendon Cross, where pastel facades lean toward one another like old friends. Guides steer the group into narrow mews and along terraces whose stucco fronts and sash windows record the area's Victorian expansion. Flower stalls punctuate the walk; bouquets spill color and scent into the street as if urging you to step closer for a frame.
