Tucked away from the politics of Westminster and the frenetic department stores of Knightsbridge, Belgravia exists in a world of its own that is, on the one hand, quiet and dignified, whilst on the other, is exceptionally refined and almost ostentatious in its privilege. Developed in the early 19th century by the Grosvenor family, this pocket of London is defined by white stucco townhouses, private garden squares, and an all-encompassing aura of both wealth and power. It’s an old-money neighbourhood that has changed little over the last two centuries, something of a rarity in a city that is seemingly constantly evolving in the present.
