Warwick Road, Earl's Court

[1] The Survey of London describe the character of Warwick Road, part of the A3220, as "largely determined by its role as a major traffic route".

[6] Close to the southern end, with its main entrance on Warwick Road, was the Earls Court Exhibition Centre built from 1935 to 1937 and demolished in 2017 to be replaced by apartment blocks and shops.

[7] Opposite is the grade II listed 1937 extension to Earl's Court tube station, a rotunda of brick and glass with a 1970s circular atrium that Historic England describe as being of "no merit".

[8] In October 2017, LGBT rights campaigner Julian Aubrey was found dead with 22 stab wounds at his home in Shaftesbury Place on Warwick Road.

[9][10][11] His neighbour, Enrique Facelli, a Uruguayan former diplomat, admitted killing him because of a "long-standing" dispute between them, and pleaded guilty to manslaughter by reason of diminished responsibility.
