Battlebridge was a rather seedy area in the 19th century, so it was renamed King's Cross (for George IV) when it underwent development.

The area got its name from a statue of King George IV that was erected in the middle of the busy intersection of the Euston Road, the Caledonian Road and the Pentonville Road. Because the statue impeded the flow of traffic and as George IV was very unpopular, the statue was removed and the base demolished after only a few years.

Lovely crescent, built in the mid-1800s, just off the Caledonian Road near King's Cross station. It has the smallest radius of any crescent in Europe and is unique in that there are houses along both sides.
