About

Hillside ward lies in the south of the London Borough of Merton, primarily encompassing the residential suburb of Morden Park. The area is characterised by quiet, tree-lined streets and a mix of housing, from semi-detached homes to larger detached properties. It is bordered by Morden Hall Park to the north and the open grounds of Morden Park itself, which provides extensive sports facilities and green space for the community.

The ward is well-connected by public transport, with Morden Underground station serving as the terminus of the Northern line. A notable local landmark is the historic Morden Park House, an 18th-century manor set within the parkland. The area maintains a distinctly suburban atmosphere, with local shopping needs largely met by the broader facilities in central Morden.
