In 1835, the novelist Anthony Trollope lived in lodgings at No. 22. He was just starting his career with the General Post Office and complained that he never had the money to pay his rent.[3]
The archaeologist and antiquarian Edward Pyddoke lived at No. 11 until his death in 1976.[4][5]
St Marylebone Workhouseedit
The western side of Luxborough street was once the site of the St Marylebone Workhouse, later the St Marylebone Institution, and finally the Luxborough Lodge. It was closed in 1965 and demolished. The site became accommodation for the Polytechnic of Central London, later the University of Westminster.[6]
