Northampton Square

Northampton Square is a town square in Clerkenwell, north London. It is located between Goswell Road and St John Street, in the EC1 postcode area, and houses City University, London's main campus.
==History==
The area began to be developed in the industrial revolution. Northampton Square was first laid out for housing in 1832, taking its name from the local landowner, the Marquess of Northampton. A fountain in the square commemorates the 1885 restoration of the gardens by Shropshire magistrate Charles Walker, who had been born in Clerkenwell. Lady Margaret Georgiana Graham, daughter of William Compton, 4th Marquess of Northampton, opened the restored gardens on 8 July 1885.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.londonremembers.com/memorials/charles-walker-lady-graham )
The square has historically housed clockmakers, jewellers, silversmiths and other fine crafts. The print-maker George Baxter lived and worked at 11 Northampton Square from 1844-1860. The site is marked by a plaque on the modern building at that address.〔London Remembers http://www.londonremembers.com/memorials/george-baxter〕
In 1878, Walter Thornbury reported that No. 35, Northampton Square was the home of the British Horological Institute, “for the cultivation of the science of horology, and its kindred arts and manufactures”.〔'Clerkenwell: (part 1 of 2)', Old and New London: Volume 2 (1878), pp. 309-328. http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=4510〕
