Bespoke joinery in Knightsbridge

RBKC describes the Brompton Conservation Area as bounded by Brompton Road to the south, the Victoria and Albert Museum to the west, Montpelier Street to the east and Ennismore Garden Mews, Rutland Street and Chevnal Place to the north.

Westminster's 2004 Knightsbridge mini guide says the central part, developed in the mid-19th century, consists of large stucco houses detailed in a classical manner, including Princes Gate, Rutland Gate, Queens Gate and part of Ennismore Gardens.
