Justice Walk is a passageway in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. It runs between Old Church Street and Lawrence Street.
The street is mostly made up of 18th and early 19th century homes, with its most notable building being a former Wesleyan chapel, now known as the Court House. Justice Walk is believed to have derived its name from Sir Henry Fielding, the author, magistrate, and founder of London's first professional police force, who lived nearby.[1]
