Rose Walk was laid out in 1907 with the first properties dating from 1911.

Queen Mary used to visit the road to admire the roses. A 1920s newspaper described the amazing display of colours and wealth of perfume.

Rose Walk is gated at each end and single storey lodges were erected for gatekeepers, at the east end in Surrey style and at the west in Sussex style.

An aim of the Underground Map project is to find the location every street in London, whether past or present, and tell its story.
