Kensington and Chelsea, London
PocketsPortobello (Powis Square · All Saints Church · Lancaster Road · Westbourne Grove)Notting Hill GateNotting Hill West
Colville sits in the heart of Notting Hill in Kensington and Chelsea, a conservation-area ward running between Portobello Road, Westbourne Grove and Ladbroke Grove. The twenty-four listed buildings include the Grade II* All Saints Church, the Grade II* Church of St Peter and the Grade II* Electric Cinema — opened in 1911 on Portobello Road and one of the first buildings in Britain designed specifically for motion-picture exhibition. Transport is good, with Notting Hill Gate, Westbourne Park and Ladbroke Grove close at hand and the Elizabeth line at Paddington within easy reach. Forty-one Ofsted outstanding rated schools fall within reach. The food and retail offer along Portobello, Westbourne Grove and All Saints Road is dense — 151 food venues and 251 non-food outlets. The honest trade-offs are severe on the safety line: crime sits in the bottom third of London wards, pulled by market-day theft and night economy, and green space within the ward is limited to Powis Square and small gardens.
