Woburn Walk is a pedestrian street that was designed by architect Thomas Cubitt in 1822. It is one of the first examples of a pedestrian shopping street in the Georgian era.

The street is well-preserved, including the black painted bow-fronted shops windows.Several of the buildings are Grade II* listed. The walk shares the same building design with the adjacent Duke's Road, which however was built open to traffic.

Built in 1822 – at least superficially not much has changed since the Georgian era. Many of the stucco-fronted houses are Grade II listed, edging on the courtyard of the New St Pancras Church.

It was designed by the architect Thomas Cubitt (who was also responsible for designing much of Belgravia, Pimlico, the Embankment and the east front of Buckingham Palace). Named after Woburn Abbey, the country seat of the Dukes of Bedford
