Literary House in Fitzroy Square, London (Public Domain Photograph)
Friday, November 9th, 2007This house in Fitzroy Square, London, was home to two very famous writers at different times - George Bernard Shaw and Virginia Woolf.
Fitzroy Square is a Georgian square in Central London in the area known as in Fitzrovia which is just north of SOHO.
If you are travelling by London Underground the nearest station would probably be Warren Street Tube. It is within walking distance of Goodge Street Tube.
Fitzroy Square was partly designed by Robert Adam and there is a sculpture by Naomi Blake in the garden in the center of the square.
Fitzroy Square is also home to the Liberia Embassy and the Mozambique Embassy. The embassy of Croatia is located on Conway Street, which is just off the square.
There are two other posts that feature the Virginia Woolf Blue Plaque and the Geroge Bernard Shaw Memorial Plaque which you can see on the front of the house in this photograph.
