Mildmay
Islington, London
Mildmay sits in the north-east of Islington around Newington Green, a medieval common that became a Nonconformist stronghold in the 17th and 18th centuries. Sir Walter Mildmay, Elizabeth I's Chancellor of the Exchequer, held an extensive estate here, and the ward still carries the name. Newington Green's 52-55 terrace — partly dating to 1658 — is the oldest surviving brick terrace in London. The ward has 52 listed buildings including the Grade I 52-55 Newington Green, the Grade II Mildmay Lodge and 111 Mildmay Grove, and the entire ward sits inside a conservation area. Transport is very good with Canonbury and Dalston Junction on the Overground and frequent buses on Balls Pond Road, plus 40 Ofsted-outstanding schools within reach. The food scene runs to around 66 venues with 84 non-food venues along Newington Green and Mildmay Park. The drawbacks are modest: green cover is thin at 2.7 hectares, air-quality is poor from Balls Pond Road traffic, and affordability is weak given the central location. Safety scores sit close to the London median.
