Eccleston Square was designed in the 1830s during the shift from Georgian to Victorian London. Cubitt bought the land from the Grosvenor family and named it after Eccleston in Cheshire, part of their northern estate.

Today, the square is still celebrated for its elegant layout and period charm, and English Heritage even lists it for its importance in the planned design of Pimlico.

The gardens in the middle of the square are a real highlight. They’ve barely changed over the years and still have some of the original plane trees, along with camellias, roses, and even rare plants, such as a Wollemi pine and a white sunflower tree. It’s a peaceful, private green space that feels like a hidden retreat in the middle of the city.
