A short history of SW1W

Chelsea takes its name from an Old English term for a chalk or limestone landing place on the river. A synod met there in 787. Before the Domesday Book, Thurstan gave the manor to the Abbot and Convent of Westminster. The Domesday Book of 1086 places Chelsea in the Ossulstone hundred of Middlesex and lists Edward of Salisbury as its main tenant. Henry VIII acquired the manor in 1536. Charles II founded the Royal Hospital in 1682 and it opened in 1694. The Five Fields, later Belgravia, were grazing land with a reputation for robbers and a body was found by Bloody Bridge in 1728. Belgravia takes its name from Belgrave in Cheshire. Richard Grosvenor, 2nd Marquess of Westminster, gained building rights in 1826 and Thomas Cubitt designed the estate, built between 1830 and 1847. The area has 596 listed buildings including 37 Grade I such as Apsley House and Wellington Arch.
