Markham Square is a garden square in Chelsea, London. It was laid out in 1836.[1] [2] The square is accessed from the King's Road.
A Congregational chapel that stood at the north end of the square was demolished in 1953.[2]
The 1965 TV special The Incredible World of James Bond filmed at Markham Square for fictional secret agent James Bond's flat.
In 2008, the square was the scene of a police siege after a resident (Mark Saunders, a lawyer) opened fire with a shotgun from a kitchen window. After a five-hour standoff, the gunman was shot dead by police.[3]
