Socio-economic connotations[edit]

Would be nice if someone could weigh in on the socio-economic connotations of the phrase - as in, were they previously associated with students or young people living cheaply, like loft housing in SoHo Manhattan? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.162.138.100 (talk • contribs) 21 January 2007‎

Category proposal[edit]

I would like to propose this be categorized into Category:Types of streets in addition to its existing categorization. Any objections? I shall give this proposal at least five days for discussion before proceeding. --Legion (talk) 16:54, 24 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

bunch of townhouses, built on top of a bunch of stores, with a courtyard-walkway between them, in the suburbs: that's what I thought[edit]

Here's the dynamic Google images link.Civic Cat (talk) 17:37, 9 August 2013 (UTC) [[reply]

"The word's later usage as a residential term"[edit]

Is it possible that (long before the 20th century) in New York and Australia stables with accommodation above them were built for exactly the same purposes as in London? Eddaido (talk) 01:21, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Bizarrely low estimate of the number of mews properties[edit]

The page currently quotes a survey estimate of 433 mews properties in London - this is ridiculous, there are hundreds of mews in London and certainly thousands of houses within them. Rechecking the linked site (everchangingmews.com) they now list 713 mews "properties" in London - but each "property" appears to be a mews with 10 to 50 (probably more in some cases) houses. So the number of 433 is almost certainly at least 10x too low. I also did a quick check on the number of roads with the word mews in them in Central London (approx inside the North/South Circular), using the OS Gazeteer (via UK Maps app on iOS) - there are about 1100. Not all of these will be proper mews, but not all mews have the word in their street name, so 1000 is a decent estimate. Even if they have only 10 properties each on average that would be 10,000 mews properties vs the figure here of 433!Jeremy Young (talk) 17:13, 16 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
