About

The Abingdon area of Kensington sits within the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, focused around Abingdon Road and Abingdon Villas. Streets are laid out with Victorian terraces, small mews and a number of garden squares set behind the main frontages. Local life is concentrated on narrow parades of shops, a handful of pubs and independent cafes tucked under residential buildings. Many houses keep original features such as cast-iron railings, sash windows and stone steps, and several blocks include long, private communal gardens that open only to residents.

Transport and everyday services are close at hand, with a mix of local bus routes and Underground connections a short walk away. The area is largely residential in scale, with short runs of mixed-use buildings at corners and the occasional post-war infill. Walks along the quieter streets reveal back lanes and cobbled mews that survive amid later development, giving Abingdon a strong sense of a settled London neighbourhood.
