About the area

King's Cross is a buzzing area where historic station buildings sit alongside a modern district created by redevelopment. The Gothic St Pancras station and Coal Drops Yard, converted from Victorian warehouses, are irresistible photo spots for architecture lovers. Open spaces such as Granary Square, with its fountains, also suit lifestyle shoots. Check the filming rules inside the stations and in the privately owned redevelopment areas.
