Chelsea, sitting north of the River Thames, is the home of one of the premier football teams in the world, CFC, Chelsea Football Club. At home in Stamford Bridge, just a stone’s throw from Earl’s Court and Fulham, it is one of the most sought after piece of real estate in the world. Since the Russian oligarch, Roman Abramovich took over CFC and re-developed the stadium and built new restaurant & hotels, the site has become even more precious.
The district of Chelsea is within the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea in the very heart of cosmopolitan & bohemian London. It has within its confines, such institutions as leading Universities, Museums, Embassies and Department stores. Apart from hosting these premier establishments, Chelsea has some of the most expensive residential & commercial properties in the world, such as Eaton Square and The New Kings Road.
Where does the name ‘Chelsea’ derive from? Apparently, it means ‘landing place on the river’ in Old English, harking back to the days of William the Conqueror with the first record of the location as the Manor of Chelsea. Back in 787 AD, the current site of Chelsea was the location of the Synod of Chelsea. King Henry VIII acquired the Manor of Chelsea from a Lord Sandy in 1536.
Bothe Henry VII’s wives, Catherine Parr and Anne of Cleves lived in this manor house on Chelsea Manor Street whilst the future Queen Elizabeth I also stayed here. A famous neighbour would be Sir Thomas Moore, who resided next door in the Beaufort House. With such a variety of royals in residents, Chelsea had become known as the village of palaces with a population of around 3000 and until the 18th century industrial revolution, was the main market garden in that part of London.
