About

Brixton Hill East sits on the eastern slope of Brixton Hill in the London Borough of Lambeth. The area runs roughly from Windmill Gardens and Blenheim Gardens down toward Streatham Hill, with patches of Rush Common lining parts of the roadside. Housing is a mix of Victorian terraces, interwar and post‑war residential blocks, and short rows of shops and services that open directly onto the hill. Daily life centers on the street: corner shops, small grocers, a handful of cafes and pubs, and local schools contribute to a neighbourhood rhythm shaped by commuter flows and school runs.

A feature that marks the area on the map is Ashby’s Mill, the mid‑19th century windmill that overlooks Windmill Gardens and stands close to the road. Public transport is focused on Brixton Hill itself, where buses run frequently and link to wider rail and tube options. Community facilities include a library and a couple of community halls used for meetings and classes, while tree‑lined streets and small front gardens provide green pockets between the built blocks.
