Bramham Gardens is a private garden, laid out as lawn and flower beds, dominated by a 90 year old row of plane trees, along its north side.

The garden is one of the few garden squares in the Capital which welcomes well-behaved dogs and their socially responsible owners.

First enclosed in the late 1800s, toward the end of a building boom of townhouses and villas, the land was initially owned by the Gunter estate. It was part of extensive market gardens, supplying fruit and vegetables to west London. The Gunter brothers began selling off plots for speculative residential house building in 1882, the first being the terraces 1-18 and 19-27. Licences were granted to individual residents for an annual fee, to use and walk in the open space adjacent to their houses.

The area at that time extended out to Hesper mews and across to Collingham Road. Today, the garden belonging to the freeholder Mrs D Hopkins, is governed in accordance with the Kensington Improvement Act of 1851. This provides for the administration of the garden to be managed by a sub-committee who work in a voluntary capacity on behalf of the residents surrounding the garden square.
