The twenty-three listed buildings include the Grade II* War Memorial of the 24th Division, the Grade II* Single Form memorial by Barbara Hepworth on the south side of the boating lake, and the Grade II* Albert Bridge with its tollbooths and lamp standards. Battersea Park itself, laid out by Sir James Pennethorne between 1846 and 1864 on the former Battersea Fields, opened in 1858. Twenty-eight Ofsted outstanding rated schools fall within reach. Transport is moderate, with Battersea Park and Queenstown Road on South Western services and the Northern line extension to Battersea Power Station just beyond the ward. The retail footprint carries 121 food venues and 269 non-food outlets. Safety scores sit in the mid range.
