West Brompton

West Brompton is an area of South West London, within the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea.

The name refers to the older locality of Brompton to the east, although the areas of South Kensington and Earl's Court separate the West Brompton from its namesake. Whilst in the early part of the 20th century, the whole area between Knightsbridge and here would have been known as Brompton, modern-day locals would not recognise Brompton and West Brompton as geographically continuous. Today it still has its own Royal Mail London postcode of SW10.
