Prince's Gate
Running adjacent to Kensington Road on the south side, separated by a high wall, is Prince's Gate. It was named after a gate into Hyde Park, opened in 1848 by Edward VII, the then Prince of Wales. In 1855 some stuccoed terraces were built opposite it, facing Kensington Road. They were described by Leigh Hunt as like "a set of tall, thin gentlemen squeezing together to look at something over the way". Many of the individual properties are now embassies or offices. Notable ones include:
The Embassy of Iran, 16 Prince's Gate
The Embassy of Ethiopia, 17 Prince's Gate
The Polish Institute and Sikorski Museum, 20 Prince's Gate
The Embassy of Thailand (branch), 28 Prince's Gate
The Embassy of Tunisia, 29 Prince's Gate
The Embassy of the United Arab Emirates, 30 Prince's Gate
The Embassy of Afghanistan, 31 Prince's Gate (entrance in Exhibition Road)
