Lavender
Wandsworth, London
Lavender sits between Clapham Junction and Lavender Hill, a dense Wandsworth ward of Victorian terraces, mansion blocks and the busy Lavender Hill high street. Heritage is meaningful: eighteen listed buildings including the Grade II* Church of St Mark, the Grade II* Former Gala Bingo Hall and the Grade II* Church of the Ascension. Public-transport access is very good — Clapham Junction is the busiest station in Britain for interchanges — and fifteen Outstanding-rated schools are within reach. The food and retail offer is dense at 195 and 187 venues. Conservation-area coverage sits at just over thirty-one percent. The drawbacks are that safety is only mid-range, air quality on Lavender Hill and Battersea Rise is poor, green space within the ward is very limited at 4.5 hectares with Wandsworth Common at 4.2 just inside the edge, and market affordability is weak.
