The history of Chelsea in 50 buildings
A neighbourhood better known by its people, SW10 also has a rich architectural history.
The West London neighbourhood of Chelsea has changed enormously over the years. In the 'Swinging Sixties' it was a vibrant hub for fashion and music.... where the likes of Mary Quant, Vivienne Westwood, and the Rolling Stones set up shop. Nowadays, it's a place beloved by the influential and wealthy.
