The London Victoria Station forms a demarcation separating Belgravia from Pimlico. Other physical separators include the River Thames to the south, Vauxhall Bridge Road to the east and the former Grosvenor Canal to the west. The Pimlico neighbourhood was developed from the street grid laid by town planner Thomas Cubitt in 1825.

Pimlico had a number of famous residents, among them Winston Churchill, Laura Ashley and Laurence Olivier.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
