About Barnsbury

  • Barnsbury is one of the most architecturally distinguished neighbourhoods in north London, with a remarkable collection of Georgian and Victorian squares and terraces that were developed in the early nineteenth century as the area was built up for middle-class residents. The neighbourhood's character was shaped by the speculative builders who developed the area in the 1820s and 1830s, and the resulting streets of stucco-fronted terraces and leafy squares give Barnsbury a character that is reminiscent of the more celebrated squares of Bloomsbury and Belgravia. The area has been home to many notable figures, including the philosopher and political theorist Michael Oakeshott and the novelist Evelyn Waugh.
