Abstract

The short streets south of Cavendish Square were first built up in the 1720s– 40s as part of the early development of the Cavendish–Harley estate in and around the square. They have been repeatedly recast since, though a few original houses, some by James Gibbs, survived into the 1970s. Only Gibbs’s Oxford Chapel (now St Peter’s, Vere Street) remains from that early period; today offices and the undistinguished sides and backs of Oxford Street department stores predominate.
