Hoxton West
Hackney, London
Hoxton West covers the west side of Hoxton between Old Street and Shoreditch, carrying the City's creative-industries fringe. The ward has twenty-eight listed buildings including the Grade II* 16 Charles Square and the Grade II* Church of St John the Baptist. Shoreditch Park at 6.6 hectares provides the main green space within a modest 9.6 hectare total. Connectivity is good via Old Street and the bus corridors, and culture and food and non-food venue scores all run strongly for the area — reflecting the Old Street / Shoreditch High Street night-time economy. Schools are solid with forty-three outstanding nearby. The downsides are familiar for the area: safety lags the London median, air pollution is poor, and market affordability is tight.
