The West London School of Art founded in either 1861 or 1862 as the Marylebone and West London School of Art, was an educational establishment in London, England. The school worked with the Science and Art Department in South Kensington and offered lessons including architectural and life drawing. The school began at a building in Wells Street and had 59 pupils in May 1862, reaching a peak for the site of 125 in February 1863. The school then moved to a building in Portland Place in either April or May 1863. After a full month at its new location, the number of students had increased to 140. In 1867, the West London school came third behind schools in Edinburgh and Glasgow in the number of prizes awarded for works sent to South Kensington for examination. In the same year, the pupil attendance had increased to 492.A later report gave 501 pupils during 1871, and by 1873, the school was located at 204, Oxford Street.On 23 January 1880, the school moved to new premises at 155, Great Titchfield street, where it was described as one of the six largest art schools in the kingdom. The building included a sculpture gallery, a life-class room and other rooms for architecture, design and modelling classes. By this time, its student body had increased to 581.In March 1886, correspondence between Mr Patterson of the West London school and the Sunderland School of Science and Art identified a significant fall in pupil numbers. The letters suggested this was due to a change in government rules, which allowed elementary schools to teach art classes. This led to fewer students wanting to attend specialised art schools. The number of students continued to decline into the late 1880s and the school was absorbed into the larger Regent Street Polytechnic in around 1889. Within a year, the number of students had risen to 600, making it the largest art school in London. The Polytechnic's art department later separated and merged with the Chelsea Polytechnic in 1964 to form the Chelsea School of Art.

33 Fitzroy Square is a townhouse and former hospital on Fitzroy Square in the Fitzrovia district of London, England. It is most famous for having been the location of Omega Workshops, but it also housed the London Foot Hospital and School of Podiatric Medicine from 1929 to 2003, before being converted back into a single house. It is now used primarily as an events venue. The house sits at the southern apex of Fitzroy Square, at the junction between Conway Street and Grafton Way. The house was built in 1794, designed by Robert Adam (as was the rest of the eastern and southern sides of the square) as part of a terrace of eight houses. It was used as a townhouse for the first century of its existence. The upper floors of the house were home to Eva Gore-Booth and Esther Roper from 1913. At the same time as Gore-Booth and Roper lived upstairs, Roger Fry downstairs founded and hosted the Bloomsbury Group's Omega Workshops from 1913 to 1919. For this, it has an English Heritage blue plaque to Fry installed on the Grafton Way side of the building. Famous artists based there in that period included Vanessa Bell, Duncan Grant, Dora Carrington, and Wyndham Lewis. The premises hosted a regular Thursday night club, whose members included W. B. Yeats and George Bernard Shaw. After the Omega Workshops went into liquidation, with the financial support of the British Chiropodical Society, the site became the London Foot Hospital. It also hosted the School of Podiatric Medicine, which was supported by University College London. It was not able to be renovated to install lifts, and its closure was mooted - including being debated in the House of Lords - in 1994. When UCL finally terminated its arrangement with the School in 2003, it was moved to Stratford to come under the remit of the University of East London, and the hospital closed. The property was sold for £10.75m in 2010.The terrace of 33 to 40 with its attached railings has been listed Grade I on the National Heritage List for England since 1954.
