Brixton Acre Lane
Lambeth, London
Brixton Acre Lane sits west of the Brixton town centre, running up Acre Lane and Brixton Hill toward the ridge at Streatham. The listed-building stock runs to thirty-two entries, led by the Grade II* Brixton Windmill (built 1816 by the Ashby family, who milled flour there until 1934) and the Grade II* Roman Catholic Chapel of Corpus Christi. Culture scores well and the night-time economy at Brixton proper is a short walk east. Public-transport access is very good via the Victoria line and Overground. Schools are solid with seventeen outstanding nearby. The drawbacks are pollution, safety and green space: air pollution sits below the midpoint on the Brixton Hill corridor, safety is weak with much of the recorded crime concentrated on Brixton Road rather than residential streets, green space is minimal at one hectare around Windmill Gardens, and market affordability is only moderate.
