Strawberry Hill is a community in West London on the north bank of the River Thames in the old county of Middlesex.  In 1747, Horace Walpole moved to this area, acquiring a house which he developed into his “little gothic Castle”.  He named it Strawberry Hill and the immediate area is named after his creation.
