Designed by renowned architect Henry Flitcroft, 33 & 34 Craven Street were originally built around 1731 (with later additions in 1792 plus further alterations in the 19th Century) as part of the Craven family's development of their Brewhouse Estate, for which Flitcroft created the masterplan.

Originally known as Spur Alley until it's redevelopment 1730's, over the years, this quiet street of predominantly handsome Georgian houses has been home to a number of notable historical figures, including Founding Father of the United States Benjamin Franklin and Herman Melville, author of Moby Dick.
