A young man in a dark suit walks past chatting friends who sit in spring sunshine outside their French-styled cafe Valerie on Motcomb Street. Belgravia's Motcomb Street SW1, was first shown on a London map in 1830. by 1854 it was populated by buisinesses such as 'cowkeepers', bakers and grocers. Today there is a mix of upper-class businesses like as Patisserie Valerie, Errol Douglas the exclusive hairdressers, Stewart Parvin the royal couturier and Moyses Stevens the florist whose floral displays are seen on their window ledge and next to ornate pavement railings outside.
