Keppel Street

The street originally continued farther east to join Russell Square.

British Museum Avenue was itself built over in the early 1930s when Senate House and other University of London buildings were constructed on the former eastern end of Keppel Street.

The main entrance to the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine is on the north side of Keppel Street.

A figure of Joseph Priestley by Gilbert Bayes may be seen above the doorway in the former Keppel Street.

[2] Charlotte and Thomas Pitt, the main characters in Anne Perry's book series, lived in Keppel Street for several decades during the victorian era.
