Campden Hill Road

Campden Hill Road is a street in Kensington, London W8. It runs north to south from Notting Hill GatetoKensington High Street.

History[edit]

Campden Hill Road was originally called Plough Lane.[1] By 1879, William Abbott, a stockbroker, "held the lease of the site between Phillimore Walk, Campden Hill Road, and Hornton Street".[2]

Notable residents include the novelist Ford Madox Ford (1873–1939) who lived at no 80, the poet Cecil Day-Lewis, with his children, including the actor Sir Daniel Day-Lewis and wife Jill Balcon, and the publisher Andrew White Tuer (1838–1900). Anglo-American landscape painter George Henry Boughton (1834-1905) lived and died at No. 118, West House, in a house built for him.

The Kensington Central Library is located at the bottom of the street, just up from Phillimore Walk.[3]
