Adelaide Road

Adelaide Road is a street in London running east to west between Chalk Farm and Swiss Cottage.

[1] Located in the London Borough of Camden it is part of the longer B509 route which continues as Belsize Road through South Hampstead.

As John Nash's development around Regent's Park neared completion, there was increasing demand for new housing for London's rapidly growing population.

Delays caused by the construction of the Birmingham to Euston railway meant that, although the street was laid out and named in 1830, housebuilding did not begin around 1839.

[6] Chalk Farm tube station is now Grade II listed[7] as is the 1930s Regency Lodge by Swiss Cottage.
