BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Campden Hill is a hill in Kensington, West London, bounded by Holland Park Avenue on the north, Kensington High Street on the south, Kensington Palace Gardens on the east and Abbotsbury Road on the west. The name derives from the former Campden House, built by Baptist Hicks, 1st Viscount Campden whose country seat was Campden House in the Gloucestershire town of Chipping Campden. Sir Baptist Hicks bought the Manor of Campden from Anthony Smyth in the first decade of the seventeenth century, although Smyth died before the sale was completed. 1612 is generally given as the year the house was built. In 1862 the house was destroyed by fire. Please explore my ebay shop for more antique prints. Track Page Views With Auctiva's FREE Counter
