Welcome to Somers Town

Somers Town is a small district located in the London Borough of Camden. It is situated between Euston Road and the railway tracks leading out of Euston Station. The area is known for its diverse community and rich history. Somers Town was once a slum area, but it has undergone significant regeneration in recent years, making it a desirable place to live.

One of the most notable landmarks in Somers Town is the British Library. The library is one of the largest in the world and houses over 150 million items, including books, manuscripts, and maps. The library is a popular destination for tourists and researchers alike. The building itself is an impressive feat of architecture, with its striking red brick exterior and modern glass atrium.

Somers Town is also home to a number of parks and green spaces. Coram's Fields is a popular park that is open to children and young people under the age of 16. The park features a playground, sports facilities, and a small farm. Another popular green space in the area is St. Pancras Gardens, which is a peaceful oasis in the heart of the city. The gardens are home to a number of historic graves, including the tomb of Sir John Soane, the famous architect.
