13A Clarendon Road, Holland Park, where in 1919, it was the scene of a murder when its owner, an army doctor, came back from the war to discover his wife had become suspiciously close to his friend.

Lt Col Norman Cecil Rutherford pulled out a revolver and shot dead his friend, Major Miles Seton, in the dining room after deciding he had begun an affair with his wife, Alice, while he was away. The doctor is believed to have been spared the death sentence as the authorities did not want to kill a capable officer, and instead he was sent to Broadmoor psychiatric hospital, he was released in 1928.
