Craig's Court SW1: London's Forgotten Square

Tucked away in the heart of London, Craig’s Court is a quiet little square which very few people seem to notice…

Despite its hidden nature though, Craig’s Court is full of history- including the building known as Harrington House, a Sherlock Holmes connection and even a secret tunnel. Oh, and the courtyard also played a role in helping London to get kerbs and pavements!

In this video we’ll be looking at the fascinating story behind this unassuming little spot…
