Rutland Street

Rutland Street runs west of Montpelier Walk.

There are small three-storey Georgian cottages (plus basement) on the south side.

The north side of the street is unusual in that is dominated by a 10 foot wall, broken by a small accessway which leads up three steps into Rutland Mews East. There is a plaque on the wall saying the wall was destroyed by a bomb during World War II on 25th September 1940. At the request of residents, a right of way was established when the wall was rebuilt by City of Westminster Council in 1948 and has come to be known as ‘The hole in the wall’.

There is also a western leg of the street, at the northern end of which there is a very attractive double-fronted house mostly covered in creeper.
