Whitstable House is a Brutalist tower block completed in 1964 at the Silchester Estate in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, London. Standing 61.7 metres high, the apartment building exemplifies the stark aesthetic of mid-century British Brutalism through its bold use of reinforced concrete and brick. Like other housing blocks of its era, it reflects the post-war commitment to large-scale residential development in the capital.
