Features

The house, architecturally, was an older, Tudor bricked home rather unlike the rest of Bannerman Road, which were all modern detached houses. Inside, the living room was quite small and held an old television and objects collected by Sarah Jane Smith in her travels.

There were many bookcases in the house. Among the books were:

The Attic

The attic was the largest room in the house, with a research laboratory and the sentient computer Mr Smith, as well as a space-time link to K9 Mark IV in a safe. This version of K9 had left Earth to stabilise a black hole. (SJA: Invasion of the Bane The safe became a storage unit for any alien weapon Sarah Jane had acquired after K9 had permanently come out from fixing the Black hole. (SJA: The Mad Woman in the Attic, Goodbye, Sarah Jane Smith) However, he would on occasion appear in the attic. (SJA: The Lost Boy, DW: Journey's End)

Sarah Jane kept a lot of photos in her attic, among them Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart, Harry Sullivan and K9. There were also old drawings of the TARDIS. (SJA: Invasion of the Bane)

Up until September 2010, there was a pillar in the middle. After this time, the top had been removed and it had become a stand on which alien objects could be placed for Mr. Smith to scan. (SJA: The Nightmare Man)

the Attic also contained a telescope and a chair for which stargazing. (SJA: The Last Sontaran)

History

13 Bannerman Road was the home of Sarah Jane Smith and her adopted son, Luke who, after discovering a Xylok unearthed at Krakatoa, built Mr Smith the computer above a fake fireplace in the attic. (SJA: The Lost Boy) Later, Maria Jackson saw Sarah Jane communing with the Star Poet in the garden of the house.

The house suffered minor damaged after Davey, a member of the Bane family was sent to kill Sarah Jane. The front door was ripped of its hinges and a couple of banisters damaged. Soon after, 13 Bannerman Road became home to Luke Smith. (SJA: Invasion of the Bane)

13 Bannerman Road served as headquarters from where Sarah Jane, Luke, Clyde and Maria would hunt aliens. There, Alan Jackson was turned to stone by a Gorgon. (SJA: Eye of the Gorgon)

The attic served as one of the nodes of the Sub-Wave Network used to guide the Tenth Doctor to Earth after the Daleks had re-located the planet to the Medusa Cascade. (DW: The Stolen Earth)

After Maria left for America, the group met Rani Chandra, who soon found out about Sarah Jane and what she did. (SJA: The Day of the Clown)
