Head east up St James Street until the junction of Madeira Place. The latter was developed from the 1780s onwards and originally named after Jermyn Place a villa built in 1781-82. The plots around the villa were soon developed and the road became Jermyn Place which was somehow corrupted into German Place the name it retained until 1914 when it was renamed Madeira Place.
