Grosvenor Place

Grosvenor Place is on Map 1d, and is named on the map. Grosvenor Place is strictly speaking a separately named terrace that forms part of London Road, but both street directories and the City Engineer treat Grosvenor Place as a named street, so I have done the same.

A number of buildings were listed by the City Engineer as "Behind Grosvenor Place", so I have used a separate table for these. The City Engineer has unhelpfully listed two different degrees of damage for the one named business, described as "Walters Nurseries". However, in the trade directory, there is "Kensington Nursery", belonging to A A Walters & Son and "Grosvenor Nursery" belonging to John Walter. It appears that the similarity of the owner names has caused them to be treated as a single business. I have separated the entries and have assumed that the one with the greater degree of damage was closer to the bomb location.
