Wilton Crescent was drawn up with the original 1821 Wyatt plan for Belgravia and named after the 2nd Earl of Wilton, second son of Robert Grosvenor, 1st Marquess of Westminster. In the 19th and 20th century it was home to many prominent British politicians, ambassadors and civil servants. Louis Mountbatten, 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma (1900-1979) lived at 2 Wilton Crescent for many years. Like much of Belgravia, Wilton Crescent is characterised by grand terraces with lavish white houses which are built in a crescent shape, many of them with stuccoed balconies. Wilton Crescent lies to the northwest of Belgrave Square and is accessed via Wilton Place which connects to Knightsbridge. Further to the east lies Buckingham Palace.
