Chelsea, London
Chelsea
is an affluent area in southwest
London
, bounded to the south by the
River Thames
. Its frontage runs from
Chelsea Bridge
along the
Chelsea Embankment
,
Cheyne Walk
,
Lots Road
and
Chelsea Harbour
. Its eastern boundary was once defined by the
River Westbourne
, which is now in a pipe above
Sloane Square tube station
. The modern eastern boundary is
Chelsea Bridge Road
and the lower half of
Sloane Street
, including
Sloane Square
. To the north and northwest, the area fades into
Knightsbridge
and
Brompton
, but it is safe to say that the area north of
King's Road
as far northwest as
Fulham Road
is part of Chelsea. The football club
Chelsea F.C.
is based at
Stamford Bridge
, which straddles the border between Chelsea and
Fulham
.
