Leinster Square

Leinster Square was created between 1856 and 1864 by a property speculator named George Wyatt. He designed it as a pair of grand, symmetrical terraces that mirrored the adjacent Prince's Square. These houses were constructed during a period when the outskirts of London were rapidly transforming from market gardens and nurseries into dense residential estates. The square remains defined by its uniform yellow brickwork, white stucco projections, and the tall, imposing proportions typical of mid-Victorian architecture.
