Parkway, Camden
Parkway, Camden

Parkway is a street in the London Borough of Camden. It runs roughly westwards from the Britannia Junction with Camden High Street and other streets in the centre of Camden Town to the entrance to Regent's Park near Gloucester Gate. It meets or is crossed by streets including Arlington Road, Albert Street, Delancey Street, Gloucester Avenue, and Albany Street. From Britannia Junction at the eastern end by Camden Town tube station, Camden Road and Kentish Town Road run northwards. It forms part of the A4201 route, which includes many streets starting at Piccadilly Circus, continues along Albany Street, and ends with Parkway at Britannia Junction. It is primarily a commercial street with bars, shops and restaurants. In the eighteenth century, when the area was still largely rural, it was known as Slipshoe Lane. During the Regency era major developments around Regents Park and Camden Town provided upmarket residential districts for the expanding capital. Parkway came to link these two areas. Some of the housing in the street dates from the early nineteenth century and the York and Albany was erected in 1826. Other buildings, including the Dublin Castle and Spread Eagle pubs, were built around the middle of the century. At this time it was called Park Street, and is shown by this name on an 1834 map. The main railway line into Euston, constructed in the 1830s, runs in a tunnel under the street's western end. At the other end of the road is Camden Town station on the Northern Line Tube, which opened in 1907. The 1850 Camden Road railway station was until then the nearest station. The Alexandria Theatre was constructed in 1873 but burnt down in 1881. The site went through various changes of use until a cinema was built during the mid-1930s by Gaumont, later becoming part of the Odeon chain.

Mornington Terrace
Mornington Terrace

Mornington Terrace is a street in Camden Town. Located in the London Borough of Camden, it runs southeastwards from Delancey Street following the route of the main line into Euston that runs immediately to its west. At its southern end it becomes Clarkson Row while Mornington Place connects it to Mornington Crescent. Both Mornington Terrace and Place are notable for their surviving Victorian houses. Like the slightly earlier Mornington Crescent it takes its name from the Irish aristocrat Richard, Earl of Mornington, the elder brother of the Duke of Wellington. The area was built up to provide extra residential capacity for the expanding capital. The construction of the railway into Euston in the late 1830s defined the route of the new street. It was called Mornington Road on an 1849 map. At that time the terraced housing on the eastern side were complimented by upmarket villas on the western side. These survived until 1900 when widening of the main line lead to their demolition. Today the street only has buildings on its eastern side. Mornington Place, originally Crescent Place, features more terraced Victoria houses before meeting Mornington Crescent by the Art Deco Carreras Cigarette Factory. Another road, Mornington Street, crosses Mornington Terrace roughly halfway down and then carries on in a bridge over the railway. The Edinboro Castle pub was constructed in the early Victorian period and is now Grade II listed. Another pub, The Victoria, sat on the corner between Mornington Terrace and Place for many years, A number of buildings are now listed. Notable residents of the streets have included H.G. Wells, who wrote several popular novels while living there with Catherine Wells, and the scientist William Crookes.
