Henry Jermyn, in 1662, gave some land around London
to build a residential area. The field was divided into different parts, in the south side of the church there was a cemetery.

Institute of Contemporary Arts

The Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) was founded in 1946 in The Mall street, London. It’s an artistic and cultural centre that tried to establish one space where artists, writers and scientists could introduce, debate and display their innovative ideas.
The first exhibitions were held in rented premises. The Institute organized exhibitions of modern art and British Brutalist art and architecture.
With the support of the Arts Council, the ICA moved to its current site in 1968. For a period during the 1970s the Institute was known for its often anarchic programme and administration. Norman Rosenthal was director of exhibitions at this time, and he was once assaulted by a group of people who were living in the upper floors of the building at the time. A bloodstain on the wall of the administrative offices is preserved under glass, with a note reading "this is Normans's blood".
Between 1977 and 1990 the ICA developed a system that separate departments specializing in visual art, cinema, theater, music and performance art. A fourth department was dedicated to talks and lectures.
