Southfield
Ealing, London
Southfield sits in the south-east corner of Ealing bordering Chiswick and Acton, with the Bedford Park estate spilling into the ward. The character is Victorian and Edwardian artistic-suburb, with wide streets and consistent red-brick housing stock. Heritage is a real strength: 136 listed buildings in a small ward including the Grade II* 14 South Parade and numerous Grade II houses in The Orchard and surrounds. Twenty-two Outstanding-rated schools are within reach. Public-transport access is good via Chiswick Park and Turnham Green on the District line, and Bedford Park is the core of the ward's conservation-area coverage. The drawbacks are that nature scores are mid-range — Southfield Recreation Ground at 4.9 hectares is the largest green space and total greenery is just over eleven hectares — air quality is only moderate given traffic on the South Circular, and the food and retail offer is modest compared with nearby Chiswick High Road.
