Grove
Hammersmith and Fulham, London
Grove ward covers the heart of Hammersmith around Ravenscourt Park, King Street and the Hammersmith Grove spine. The whole ward sits inside a conservation area. The twenty-two listed buildings include the Grade II* Church of St Paul Hammersmith, descended from a 1631 chapel of ease consecrated by William Laud, then Bishop of London, along with the Grade II* Church of St John the Evangelist and the Grade II* Convent and School of the Sacred Heart. Transport is good, with Hammersmith on four Underground lines and the bus interchange alongside, and twenty-eight Ofsted outstanding rated schools fall within reach. The food and retail offer along King Street and Hammersmith Grove is well-developed with over a hundred eating places. The downsides sit on the market and green lines. Pricing is pushed up sharply by the broader Hammersmith pressure, parks within the ward run to under two hectares with most residents walking to Ravenscourt Park or Furnivall Gardens, and air quality is depressed by the A4 and Hammersmith Broadway traffic.
