Detail InformationEdit

Golden Square, Soho, London in the City of Westminster is one of the historic squares of Central London. The square is just east of Regent Street and north of Piccadilly Circus.Most likely laid down according to plans by Sir Christopher Wren, this west London square was brought into being from the 1670s onwards. It very rapidly became the political and ambassadorial district of the late 17th and early 18th centuries, housing the Portuguese embassy among others.
The town house of the first Viscount Bolingbroke, much favoured by Queen Anne, was situated on the square. The statue of George II is believed to have come from Cannons House. William Pitt the Elder was born in the Square in 1708.The square features, albeit in a fictional context, in the third part of Neal Stephenson’s Baroque Cycle, The System of the World. An important scene in A Handful of Dust, by Evelyn Waugh, takes place in a nightclub in the fictional Sink Street, off Golden Square.
