Enjoyed an interesting guided walk through Pimlico recently, uncovering the rich architectural heritage of this distinctive London neighbourhood.
The 19th-century master builder Thomas Cubitt played a pivotal role in shaping Pimlico's elegant streetscape, as well as many other notable areas across London. From its beautiful garden squares to its graceful white stucco terraces and colonnades, the neighbourhood remains a showcase of thoughtful urban design.
We also explored some of Pimlico's celebrated 20th-century developments, including Dolphin Square, the iconic Neo-Georgian housing estate that has been home to an extraordinary cast of residents over the years, including former Prime Minister Harold Wilson, former Conservative leader William Hague, James Bond creator Ian Fleming, Princess Anne and Christine Keeler.
A fascinating afternoon of architecture, history and design inspiration in one of West London's most charming neighbourhoods. 🌿
