Broadstone Place
Broadstone Place is a cobbled through road connecting Blandford Street to the south with Dorset Street to the north, tucked between Kenrick Place and Kendall Place in a compact block of the Marylebone village grid. With only three properties, it is one of the smallest named thoroughfares in the area. It carries a W1U postcode and falls within Westminster City Council's Portman Estate Conservation Area, under which any new development must comply with conservation controls.
The street originated as a service mews, with the original buildings designed to provide stable and coach-house accommodation for the principal properties fronting Chiltern Street. This functional secondary role, common across the mews network of Georgian Marylebone, meant the properties were built at a modest two to three storeys in brick, with working ground floors and living space above for coachmen and grooms.
During the Second World War, a high-explosive bomb fell directly on Broadstone Place, destroying the original fabric. The current buildings were rebuilt after the war, meaning the street does not retain its Victorian structure, though the cobbled surface and tight urban form preserve something of the original spatial character. The properties are now used for commercial purposes. The street's location within easy reach of Chiltern Street, Blandford Street, and the broader Marylebone village makes it a useful connecting route despite its very small scale.
