About

Earl's Court sits in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, centred on Earl's Court Road and the tube station where the District and Piccadilly lines meet. Streets such as Warwick Road, Philbeach Gardens and Nevern Place lead into garden squares and rows of terraced houses. Shops and businesses line the main roads, while back streets hold a mix of residential mews and mansion blocks. Nevern Square contains a private communal garden that dates to the Victorian development of the area.

The western side of the area was home to the Earl's Court Exhibition Centre, a large event site that hosted fairs, concerts and trade shows until its demolition in the 2010s; the site and surrounding streets still reflect that history in their cluster of hotels and short-stay accommodation. Transport links are a feature: beyond the tube there are frequent buses and West Brompton station a short walk away for Overground and national rail services. Local pubs, galleries and bakeries serve the neighbourhood day to day.
