Granville Place
Granville Place is a short residential lane in Marylebone carrying the postcode W1H, running in an inverted L-shape to connect Portman Mews South and Portman Street. At roughly 79 metres in length, it is one of the more intimate streets in this part of the Portman Estate, sitting in the quiet residential quarter to the north of Oxford Street and close to the eastern edge of Edgware Road's commercial district.
The street's scale and character place it within the category of secondary lanes and mews approaches that the Portman Estate developed alongside its principal terraced streets in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Period facades and the proportions typical of the estate's residential fabric remain in evidence. Its proximity to Marble Arch and Selfridges on Oxford Street, both within a short walk, means it sits at the edge of one of central London's busiest retail corridors while itself remaining relatively composed and low-traffic in character.
The nearest Underground stations are Marble Arch and Bond Street, both served by the Central line. The lane's occasional use as a location for film and photography shoots reflects the degree to which it retains a period atmosphere uncommon in streets this close to Oxford Street. Portman Square, the formal centrepiece of this section of the Portman Estate, is a short walk to the north and provides the wider neighbourhood's principal garden square.
