Oxford Street and South of
Regents Park.
Edgware Road forms the Western boundary.
Portland Place forms the eastern boundary with the area known as Fitzrovia.

St Mary's, that was built on the bank of a small stream or
bourne called the Tyburn. The church and the surrounding area later became known as
St Mary at the bourne, which over time became shortened to its present form Marylebone.
Today the area is mostly residential with a stylish High Street. It is also notable for its Arab population on its far western border around
Edgware Road.

The underground station is served by the Bakerloo Line, opening on 27 March 1907 by the
Baker Street and Waterloo Railway under the name Great Central (following a change from the originally-intended name
Lisson Grove). It was renamed Marylebone in 1917.
