Henry George Davis spent his short life gathering the history of Knightsbridge, and his brother published the work after his death. It traces the hamlet’s historical associations, its streets and public buildings, Belgravia and the district of St Barnabas, with notes on residents such as Maurice Morgann, author of the essay on Falstaff.
A labour of love for London history buffs, full of the small detail that larger histories leave out. Download the free EPUB.
