Chepstow Place is a street in London that runs from the junction of Westbourne Grove and Pembridge Villas in the north to Pembridge Square in the south. It is crossed by Dawson Place and joined on its eastern side by Rede Place. The east side is in the City of Westminster and the west side in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.

History

[edit]

The street was one of those in the area developed in the mid-nineteenth century by William Henry Jenkins, originally of Herefordshire, and William Kinnaird Jenkins, who leased land on the Ladbroke Estate from 1844.[1][2] The origins of the Jenkins is reflected in the many Hereford and Welsh names used in local streets such as Chepstow and the nearby Pembridge, Ledbury and Denbigh.[3]
