London Photo Gallery - Belgravia

Belgravia was developed by the Marquess of Westminster in the early 19th century and has been home to the rich and famous since. With long rows of Regency-style terraced homes coupled with wrough-iron balconies and white facades, the area has gotten on the radar of today's ultra high net worth tycoons. There are also many private gardens and mews houses in the area. Ironically, before the rich came, this area of London was marshland and home to thieves.

Cadogan Place is one of these private gardens with grand homes surrounding it.

The Holy Trinity Church Sloane Square is the work of John Dando Sedding, who led the Arts and Crafts movement. However, his vision was never fully executed due to the two World Wars, with incendiary bombs causing major structural damage to the nave. Reconstruction was slow as Victorian architecture became unfashionable by then and pressures mounted to demolish the building outright.
