About

Belsize ward sits in the northern part of the London Borough of Camden, bordered by Hampstead to the west and Primrose Hill to the south. Its residential streets are characterised by a mix of Victorian and Edwardian architecture, with many mansion blocks and converted flats alongside terraced houses. The area is primarily residential, with local commerce centred on Belsize Village and England's Lane, providing shops and services for the community.

A defining aspect is the presence of the extensive, secluded grounds of the former Belsize House estate, now largely private gardens for surrounding mansion flats. The ward includes the southern slopes of Hampstead, with streets like Belsize Park Gardens leading up towards the Heath. It is well-connected by the Northern line stations at Belsize Park and Swiss Cottage, facilitating travel into central London.
