Half Moon Street is home to several listed properties and is famed for its literary history – it is where the fictional character Wooster and his valet Jeeves of P.G. Wodehouse's novels lived and where in 1763, James Boswell wrote his infamous diary. The street's name comes from the Half Moon pub, which once stood at the corner of the road with Piccadilly and at which Oscar Wilde was a regular visitor.
