2. Marylebone History
Historically, the parish of St. Mary’s, from which Marylebone’s name
derives, covered the area comprised between Oxford Street, Regent’s
Park and St. John’s Wood. Today, the two areas tend to be regarded as
separate, with Marylebone bounded by Oxford Street to the south,
Marylebone Road to the north, Edgware Road to the west and Great
Portland Street to the east.
Marylebone has been developed starting with the 18th century, by two
major landowners. The Portman estate, covering most of the area west
of Baker Street, still features today the wide roads and elegant squares
it was originally designed with by Henry Portman. Manchester square,
Portman square and Village are among the highlights of the estate, with
a lot of the magnificent Georgian buildings being restored and many
streets landscaped and pedestrianised.
The Howard de Walden estate, covering the area east of Baker Street,
features some of London’s most beautiful Georgian architecture and
Marylebone’s main attraction: the Marylebone Village. By carefully
preserving the character of its’ period buildings as well as rejuvenating
the Marylebone High Street, which continues to be the heart of the
village after more than 600 years, the estate has successfully turned
Marylebone in one of London’s most charming and desirable areas to
live in.
