Mary Wollstonecraft wrote Vindication of the Rights of Women in Store Street; the poet Christina Rossetti was born in Charlotte Street and in 1888, Agnes Bertha Marshall created the first ice cream cornet at her cookery school in Mortimer Street.
Situated bang in the centre of town, Fitzrovia is an area of London which has been home to more than its fair share of notable characters.
Marsha Rowe, co-author of Characters of Fitzrovia, joins Jenni to recount their stories.
Characters of Fitzrovia by Mike Pentelow & Marsha Rowe (Chatto and Windus, ISBN: 0701173149, 拢25.00).
