View of Trevor Place
Description
Front elevation of houses at 25-35 Trevor Place, Knightsbridge, looking south. Trevor Place and adjoining streets were laid out on the site of Powis House, the late seventeenth-century mansion of the Trevor family. The architect William Fuller Pocock developed the estate, and laid out Hill Street c1827 (renamed Trevor Place in 1936). 25-36 Trevor Place was built 1847-52, completed after William F. Pocock's death in 1849 by his son, William Willmer Pocock. Similar in design to numbers 10-24, the terrace has three-storey houses with basement, iron railings at ground level, first-floor balconies and decorative stucco to windows and parapet. A number of houses have had roof extensions added. The corner house has four storeys and a portico entrance and was originally 36 Trevor Place but was re-numbered to 45 Montpelier Square. It has an estate agents 'For Sale' sign attached to its railings. A number of cars are parked on the street including an Austin Maxi and a Mercedes-Benz 230SL in the foreground. The massive former Harrods Depository is visible on Trevor Square, designed by C. W. Stephens and E. J. Munt and built 1913-c1920. The houses of 25-35 Trevor Place are named as unlisted buildings of merit by Westminster Council and lie within the Knightsbridge conservation area designated in 1968, and are still extant. The Harrods Depository building was converted to luxury apartments in 2002 and is also extant.
