13 Campden Hill Square, W11

Campden Hill SquareCould there be a more archetypal Sixties movie than Karel Reisz’s Morgan – A Suitable Case For Treatment? Gorilla-fixated anarcho-Trotskyite Morgan Delt (David Warner) baits and hounds his upper-class ex-wife Leonie (Vanessa Redgrave, getting an Oscar nomination) and her ghastly new boyfriend (Robert Stephens) as their boisterous relationship implodes in this quiet corner of Holland Park.

Trivia: Number 23 Campden Hill Square was home to war poet Siegfried Sassoon, and 96 Campden Hill Square was the birthplace of Daniel Day-Lewis.
