Thurloe Square takes its name from John Thurloe, Oliver Cromwell’s Secretary of State, and is a typical Victorian garden with mature trees, winding paths, lawns, borders, flowerbeds and a children’s play area. The square was developed in the 1840s to designs by George Basevi, signalling a new period of Italianate townhouse design in London. In the 18th century the land had passed from Anne Browne to her second husband, Thurloe’s grandson.
