Lansdowne Terrace is a street located in Bloomsbury which stretches from south to north, connecting Guilford Street to Brunswick Square.

On the west side of Lansdowne Terrace, there are houses, while the eastern side is bordered by Coram’s Fields.

Houses numbered 1 to 4 are designated as Grade II listed properties. These houses were constructed in 1794 and were designed by the architect James Burton.

At the northern end of Lansdowne Terrace, you’ll encounter the main entrance to International Hall, a university hall of residence that is owned by the University of London.

Lansdowne Place was renamed as Lansdowne Terrace in 1938 and both are after William Petty, 1st Marquess of Lansdowne, Prime Minister in 1782.
