Did you know

Number 30 Chalcot Crescent stood in for the Browns' front door in every Paddington film; the crescent's real curved, colourful terraces are what the production was actually after, not any one specific house.

Local tip

It's a real residential street. No. 30 is a private home, so this is a look-and-photograph-from-the-pavement stop, not somewhere to linger or knock.
