OLD BROMPTON ROAD

'Old Brompton Road' is a street in South Kensington, London.
It starts from South Kensington tube station and runs south-west, through a mainly residential area, until it reaches West Brompton and the area around Earl's Court tube station. It runs through the SW5 and SW7 postcodes.
There are several 5-star hotels and upmarket shops along the road. One of the most famous auction houses in the world, Christie's, is located near the eastern end of the road at number 85.
The Coleherne pub, located at 261 Old Brompton Road, has become infamous for being the stalking grounds for three separate serial killers, Dennis Nilsen, Michael Lupo and Colin Ireland. The pub was also mentioned in Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City book Babycakes.
The most famous resident was Diana, Princess of Wales before her 1981 engagement and subsequent marriage to Charles, Prince of Wales. She shared a flat with three others before subsequently moving on to Clarence House, the home of the late Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother.
The road is sometimes confused with Brompton Road which lies further to the east, in Knightsbridge.
