London Borough: ROYAL BOROUGH OF KENSINGTON AND CHELSEA and also partly in  BOROUGH OF WESTMINSTER

The London postcode of SW7 covers the areas of South Kensington, Knightsbridge, Gloucester Road, and Queens Gate. While Queens Gate is more residential the other areas are rich in shopping, bars, restaurants and other amenities. This is a very exclusive and fashionable area of London. Kensington locally is referred to as 'ken' when used in conjunction with another word. For example Kensington High Street is called 'High Street Ken', and South Kensington is called 'South Ken'. Knightsbridge itself is actually a road that runs parallel with the South side of Hyde Park and this section of South Kensington has become known as Knightsbridge in its own right. Along this section you will the barracks for the Royal Household Calvary whose duty it is to guard the Queen and Buckingham Palace. Perhaps Knightsbridge is most notable as home to the world famous department store of Harrods, although this is actually on Brompton Road. There are many places of interest in Knightsbridge and South Kensington not least being Hyde Park to the North. Others include the Natural History and Science Museums, Albert Museum, the Royal Albert Hall and the Albert Memorial. Less well known is that SW7 is home to the headquarters of the Scout movement at Baden Powel House on the Cromwell Road. For shoppers Sloane Street, Brompton Road and Knightsbridge have a wide selection of stores (large number of fashion and designer boutiques), cafes and bars with very much an upmarket feel.

There are two theories as to how Knightsbridge gained its name. Both agree that the ‘bridge’ part was from the bridge that used to cross the Westbourne River at this point. As to the first part of the name one theory is that came from a famous duel between two knights who fought to the death on the bridge. The other theory is less dramatic. The theory is that ‘Knights’ is a corruption of the name ‘Neyt’ which was the adjacent manor.
