.]] Cromwell Road is a major road in the Royal Borough Of Kensington And Chelsea , London , and is designated part of the A4 . It was created in the 19th Century and is named after Oliver Cromwell . It starts as West Cromwell Road near West Kensington Tube Station , continuing eastwards from Talgarth Road . It becomes Cromwell Road proper as it crosses Earl's Court Road . It travels through South Kensington , just south of Cromwell Hospital , then past Gloucester Road and Gloucester Road Tube Station . The next major crossroads comes at the intersection with Queen's Gate, on the corner of which stands Baden Powell House , the former headquaters of the Scout Association . The road then passes to the south of a museum-academic complex informally known as Albertopolis , including the Natural History Museum , the Science Museum , Imperial College London and the Victoria And Albert Museum , near South Kensington Tube Station . Near this complex, at the junction with Exhibition Road , it becomes Cromwell Gardens for a short stretch before it joins Brompton Road . |
