Mallord Street is parallel to the King's Road and runs from Old Church Street to The Vale. It was created in 1909 when The Vale was extended northwards, and Mallord Street and Mulberry Street were added to link it with Old Church Street.[2] Renumbering took place in 1924.[3]
Nine of the houses in the street are listed Grade II by Historic England[4][5][6][7] and there have been several notable residents, including the author A. A. Milne and the artist Augustus John.
