Evelyn Gardens, Garden square in Chelsea, London, United Kingdom.

Evelyn Gardens features pathways and green spaces surrounded by residential buildings constructed between 1886 and 1896 in north-west Fulham Road.

The land belonged to Sir Charles James Freake, and after his death in 1884, Lady Freake partnered with banker Charles Townshend Murdoch to develop the area.

The garden square serves as a community gathering space where residents participate in the management through an elected garden committee under specific legislation.

Imperial College London maintains two student residences within the square: Fisher Hall at numbers 12-30 and Bernard Sunley Hall at numbers 40-44.

Vernon Kell, the first Director-General of MI5 from 1909 to 1940, and Charles Digby Harrod, owner of Harrods, once resided in Evelyn Gardens.
