  • Grosvenor Walk in Belgravia
    DISCOVER A HISTORY WALKING IN BELGRAVIA A GUIDED WALK THROUGH THE HEART OF BELGRAVIA BELGRAVIA: A HISTORY The Grosvenor family has owned the 80 hectares (200 acres) of Belgravia since 1677, when Sir Thomas Grosvenor married Mary Davies, heiress to part of the Manor of Ebury. At that time, the southern part of the manor bounded by Chelsea, Hyde Park and Buckingham Palace, known as the Five Fields, was open land – a mix of swamp, pasture, orchards, a few scattered houses and much of it the haunt of highwaymen. HOUSING BOOM The end of the Napoleonic Wars brought a great housing boom to London. This, and the conversion of the nearby Buckingham House into a palace for George IV in 1826, was the catalyst for the development of the Five Fields as one of the most fashionable and desirable residential areas of central London. (The Grosvenors had already developed Mayfair a hundred years earlier). AN ELEGANT ESTATE Working to the vision of Robert, 1st Marquess of Westminster, Thomas Cundy (the Estate Surveyor) and Thomas Cubitt (master builder), oversaw the development of Belgravia into an elegant estate in the classic Regency style of squares, streets and crescents, aligned to overlook private gardens surrounded by unified palazzo façades. Some of the larger houses have now become the headquarters of commercial businesses, institutions and embassies, while the development of large modern offices has been encouraged on the perimeter of the Estate. However, the vast majority of Cubitt’s work still survives and almost the whole of Belgravia is included in a statutory Conservation Area.
