Kingsley Amis and Regent's Park Road: Literary London #29

Kingsley Amis (1922-95) lived at 194 Regent's Park Road, Primrose Hill, from 1985 until his death.

The house is very close to Chalk Farm railway bridge, which Ted Hughes wrote about in the poem 'Epiphany' in Birthday Letters (1998).

Amis used to drink at the Garrick Club in the West End, but on weekends he would drink at The Queen's on Regent's Park Road.
