	Brompton Road tube station - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Brompton Road tube station is a disused station on the Piccadilly Line of the London Underground.
		Although it was convenient for both the Brompton Oratory and the Victoria and Albert Museum it saw little traffic, and by October 1909 some services passed it without stopping.
		When a new entrance was built onto Knightsbridge nearby, it sounded the death-knell for Brompton Road which finally closed on 30 July 1934.

	KENSINGTON - LoveToKnow Article on KENSINGTON
		The Roman Catholic church of Our Lady of Victories lies close to Kensington Road, and in Brompton Road is the Oratory of St Philip Neri, a fine building with richly decorated interior, noted for the beauty of its musical services, as is the Carmelite Church in Church Street.
		In Kensington Gardens, near the upper end of Exhibition Road, which separates the two museums, was held the Great Exhibition of 1851, the hail of which is preserved as the Crystal Palace at Sydenham.
		The greater part of the gardens, however, with the Albert Memorial, erected by Queen Victoria in memory of Albert, prince consort, the Albert Hall, opposite to it, one of the principal concert-halls in London, and the Imperial Institute to the south, are actually within the city of Westminster, though commonly connected with Kensington.

	Underground History - Brompton Road Underground Station
		With a very similar history to Down Street, Brompton Road, situated between Knightsbridge and South Kensington stations started service in 1906 when the Finsbury Park to Hammersmith stretch of the Piccadilly Line was opened.
		Brompton Road therefore cannot be used as an emergency exit point despite the fact that its spiral staircase is still intact.
		The reason for the drop is that when Brompton Road was converted for wartime use, the whole of the platform area was excavated and removed.

	Adelphi Granted Permit to Construct Another Dorm
		Brompton Road residents, prospective neighbors of the university's new dormitory, got another chance to plead their case against the new hall last Thursday during a packed board meeting that forced several residents to stand in the hallway.
		James Gray of Brompton Road said he and his neighbors were never reassured their property values would not suffer.
		Another resident who's lived on Brompton Road since the age of 4 was equally outraged about the possibility of a "180-unit motel," as he described it, being built in his backyard.

	Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Knightsbridge tube station
		It was decided to close Brompton Road and replace it with an additional southerly exit from Knightsbridge (reached by escalator) at Harrods (in order to reduce crowds at the other exit).
		Eventually, in 2004, this was solved by the expansion of this exit into a large circular area, under the road towards Harrods, with the way out of the station being by a stairway in the midst of the road.
		Such alterations to roads would not have been possible when the station was considered part of a private business, rather than as part of a public organisation bringing significant levels of custom to the area.

	Hidden City: Brompton Road Tube Station (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Despite being next to the Brompton Oratory and the Victoria and Albert Museum, Brompton Road was another Piccadilly Line station closed due to low traffic.
		In 1972 Brompton Road was widened, leading to the demolishion of the larger part of the station building, its replacement by the white-fronted facade seen in these photographs, taken in September 2000.
		As at Down Street, the screen walls on the platform were not removed, and so all that is noticable at track-level is a brief change to open brickwork on the right of the train, and very grimy tiles on the left.

		Most of the shops immediately in the vicinity of Harrods seem to be of the sort that are permanently on sale, it seemed odd that there are mobile phone shops around one of the most famous and exclusive shops in the world but heigh ho.

		The shops teeter on the top edge of affordable fashion, and many of the stores are big enough to have either their full range on display, or enough of their full range to make a visit very worthwhile.

		WALK 500 yards west along Brompton Road from Harrods, past Emporio Armani, and you hit upon a retail strip more in keeping with a suburban high street than this unbeatably prime, central-London location.
		Rectifying this strange retail anomaly in one of London's most famous streets is the objective of Brompton Estates, an alliance between two local property trusts that has acquired, from Wellcome Trust, an entire block on Brompton Road stretching between Beauchamp Place and Thurloe Place.
		But Brompton Estates is treading especially gently, knowing that existing shop-owners may not be happy with the change.

	CNP Articles - Brompton Oratory Has Lessons for Parishes
		The London Oratory on Brompton Road -- often called the Brompton Oratory -- is one of London's Catholic landmarks.
		It is rich in links with John Henry Newman, whose statue, with a gentle smile, now faces the roaring traffic of the Brompton Road and reassures you that you have found the church you are looking for, and Father William Faber, author of "Faith of our Fathers," who is buried in Saint Wilfrid's chapel inside.
		It is notable that it is at the Brompton Oratory where the Novus Ordo is done as it should be done and attracts vast crowds that the Tridentine Rite is also, Sunday by Sunday, not merely tolerated but fostered and valued, advertised on the notice-board and treated as part of the parish life.

	Brompton Oratory, London: Keeping Catholic tradition alive
		After all, over 3,000 Londoners of all ages worship every Sunday in the enormous High Renaissance Early Baroque church (consecrated in 1884) in Brompton Road that has come to be known as the Brompton Oratory.
		The discipline of Lent, the stark reality of Good Friday, the hope of Easter, the fire of Pentecost, and the Church's joy at the example of her saints, all find expression in the music, vestments, and furnishings of the Oratory Church.
		The Forty Hours devotion, and the Corpus Christi procession out into Brompton Road, rejoice in the precious gift of the Blessed Sacrament in defence of the belief in which much English blood has been spilt.

	Gifford - Consulting Engineers - News - 13th October 2003 - Brompton Road
		As well as the Piccadilly Line running close by this Brompton Road-Hans Crescent corner site, Gifford had to cope with the fact that the imposing building incorporated the western entrance to Knightsbridge station, one of the busiest and best known in London as it gives underground travellers passage to the world famous Harrods store.
		The building was not listed but is in a conservation area which meant planners have a major say in what can be done; hence a facade retention solution.
		The Piccadilly Line tunnels run up Brompton Road, with the west bound line being the one potentially at risk from the works above.
