About in this area :
St John's Wood developed from the early 19th century onwards. One of the first developers was James Burton. It was among the first London suburbs with lower-density villa housing and frequent avenues, but fewer communal garden squares. Most of the villas have since been subdivided and replaced by small apartment blocks or terraces. This pattern of development has made it one of the most expensive areas of London.
St John's Wood is the location of Lord's Cricket Ground, home of Middlesex County Cricket Club, the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), one of the most famous international test cricket grounds in the world, and known as the Home of Cricket on account of its role as the original headquarters of cricket. Lords opened in 1810, replacing Lord's Old Ground, also in St John’s Wood, which had been in operation since 1787 and which was subsequently redeveloped as Dorset Square.
It is also famous for Abbey Road Studios and the street Abbey Road, where The Beatles recorded, notably the Abbey Road album, the cover of which features the band crossing the road.
The King's Troop, Royal Horse Artillery was formerly based at St John's Wood Barracks. The regiment moved to Woolwich on 6 February 2012; the barracks has been demolished and the site developed as upmarket housing.
The area is also home to St. John's Wood Church Grounds, which contains the only nature reserve in the City of Westminster.
Much of the neighbourhood is covered by a conservation area, a small part of which extends into neighbouring Camden.
It is an affluent neighbourhood, with the area postcode (NW8) ranked by Forbes magazine as the fifth most expensive in London, based on average home prices in 2007. According to a 2014 survey, St John's Wood tenants pay the highest average rent in London, with rents averaging £1,889 per week.
This super large double room is very bright and comes fully furnished with all you may need, a comfortable double bed, and plenty of spacious wardrobes for your personal belongings.
