Norfolk Crescent, together with Oxford and Cambridge Squares, was created on the site of the earlier, much larger Stanhope Square. The area was within the Bishop of London's extensive Paddington Estate and was developed from 1838 as part of estate surveyor George Gutch's 'Final Plan for Tybernia'. The form of the garden is intact although the surrounding area was redeveloped in the 1960s. Nowadays the garden contains notable mature London plane trees, modern bedding, a central privet-hedged enclosure and modern railings.
