HISTORY

Most of the area was first developed between the mid-17th and mid-18th century as a fashionable residential district, by a number of landlords, the most important of them the Grosvenor family. The Rothschild family bought up l arge areas of Mayfair in the 19th century and the freehold of a large section of Mayfair belongs to the Crown Estate.

Mayfair was originally a village and it still retains much of that feeling today, despite being on the doorstep of some of central London's busiest retail and tourist destinations. Today, Mayfair is home to the Canadian High Commission and the United States Embassy, the Royal Academy of Arts, The Handel House Museum, The Grosvenor House Hotel, Claridge's and The Dorchester.
