Vincent Square
Westminster, London
Vincent Square covers the strip of Westminster between Victoria and the Thames at Millbank, a ward mixing Edwardian mansion flats at Ashley Gardens, Lutyens's Grosvenor Estate social housing on Page Street, and the riverfront institutions. Heritage is at the top end: 66 listed buildings include the Grade I Westminster Cathedral, the Grade II* Tate Gallery (Tate Britain) and the Grade II* Hogarth House, with nearly 69% of the ward in a conservation area. Public-transport access is very good via Victoria and St James's Park, 15 outstanding schools are in reach, air quality holds up relatively well, and the food and cultural layer is dense. The flipsides are consistent with central Westminster: the safety score is below average — footfall crime around Victoria — green space is limited at just over a hectare within the ward (St John's Gardens is the largest); and the market and planning scores reflect a near-frozen new-build pipeline.
