Brompton is an area in SW London fairly near to Chelsea.

There's an oratory, a cemetery and a road all called Brompton, but I've
never heard anyone refer to an area called Brompton, and I've lived in
south London for over 50 years.


Well I have heard of one particular employment agency who are based
there called "the Brompton Barrow Boys" (their reputation as "wide
boys" is second to none in the agency business).

And streetmap finds it
