St Peter's Square, London

The limit of Chiswick (thus now also the London Borough of Hounslow) is the westernmost garden fences where there is a lane called British Grove.

St Peter's Church, Hammersmith, the substantial Grecian Ionic structure that was completed in 1829[1] occupies the south eastern corner of the site and is opposite 22 St Peters Square, a Grade II listed architect's studio and office building, that was formerly Island Records headquarters and is now named Island Studios.

The houses are a good example of 19th century squares architecture, with paired villas in classical style arranged around a central space.

[2] The square was laid out during the economic boom of the 1820s, when the then owner, George Scott decided to build a speculative housing development on part of his Ravenscourt Park estate and also provided the land for St Peter's Church, Hammersmith.

The director was Jack Clayton, the script was by Harold Pinter and the leading roles were played by Anne Bancroft and Peter Finch.
