Chalk Farm is the name of a place in the London Borough Of Camden . It lies directly to the north of Camden Town and its Underground Station is the closest tube station to the nearby, upmarket neighbourhood of Primrose Hill .

Its name, deceptively rural, derives from the Anglo-Saxon for ‘cold cottages’. These days it absorbs the spread from Camden Town and has many lively pubs, live music venues, and restaurants.

Within London , it is best known as the site of '' The Roundhouse '', a former circular railway engine shed which was subsequently converted for arts and performance use.

It is also the site of the Camden College Of English .

Chalk farm also contains Haverstock Comprehensive School .
