Belsize Park's 1850-1870 stucco terraces are generally unlisted but sit wholly within the Belsize Conservation Area — Camden has issued Article 4 Directions covering roof alterations, so dormers and mansards face planning scrutiny even on unlisted stock.
Many Belsize Park mansion blocks have 1930s reinforced-concrete floor slabs with integral tile flooring — removing those tiles for modern wet-underfloor-heating retrofit requires structural engineer sign-off because the tile forms part of the acoustic compartmentation.
Because CPG5 mandates structural heave monitoring for 12+ months post-completion, Belsize basement conversions often carry a retention bond with the contractor to cover any monitoring-period remedials — a contract structure rarely seen outside Camden.
Permitted Development Class A or planning consent under Article 4 — Building Regs Part A (structure), L (energy), F (ventilation) on integral-garage habitable conversion.

Who is Baily?
Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.
He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.
That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.
Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
