London - 2 Jun - Decoration in Cecil Court

For such a relatively small street, Cecil Court has a large amount of its interesting history recorded:

“Cecil Court, the ultimate destination for art, antiques, books, culture, and curiosities – a whole street of uncommonly good independent shops and experienced, knowledgeable dealers waiting to be discovered by you.”

“The eternal tread of feet upon the pavement

…fortunately for us an extraordinary array of people have left evidence of more tangible associations with Cecil Court. It was the first London address of W.A. Mozart and his family, arguably where he composed his first symphony; film pioneers such as James Williamson and Cecil Hepworth regarded ‘Flicker Alley’ as the heart of the early British film trade; a young Arthur Ransome honed his writing skills while doing as little work as possible for Ernest Oldmeadow at the Unicorn Press; long-term residents of the flats above Cecil Court include T.S. Eliot and actors such as Ellen Terry, and patrons of the shops below range from Aleister Crowley to Graham Greene, by way of T.E. Lawrence.“
