Hampstead Road, London

Hampstead Road is a road in London, England, stretching over a kilometre between Bloomsbury and Camden Town. It is signed as the A400. Hampstead Road terminates at Euston Road in the south, where it continues as Tottenham Court Road and (via a slip road) Gower Street. In the north, at Mornington Crescent, Hampstead Road becomes Camden High Street.

The UCH Education Centre, at the southern end of Hampstead Road, at the junction with Euston Road.

For most of its length, Hampstead Road is sandwiched between Regent's Park Estate to the west and Euston railway station to its east. In addition, from south to north on Hampstead Road are Euston Tower, the Camden People's Theatre, Drummond Street, the former Maria Fidelis Roman Catholic Convent School (recently relocated due to HS2), the Prince of Wales pub, the St Pancras Female Orphanage, and the High Speed 2 terminus under construction at Euston (formerly site of the National Temperance Hospital).

Hampstead Road then crosses the West Coast Main Line, before forming the western boundary of the Ampthill Square Estate and the western side of Harrington Square, passing on the left the Carreras Building, and on the right Mornington Crescent tube station, then joining Camden High Street at the statue of Richard Cobden.

Hampstead Road used to run north to Hampstead, but has been renamed everywhere north of Mornington Crescent. Nonetheless, it still gave its name to Hampstead Road Locks and the original name of Primrose Hill railway station, which are both on the former part of Hampstead Road now called Chalk Farm Road.

Numbers 261–263,[1] the Prince of Wales pub at number 119,[2] Mornington Crescent tube station,[3] and the statue of Richard Cobden are all grade II listed buildings.[4]
