Lillie Road & Greyhound Road

Lillie Road and Greyhound Road lie in the north of Fulham, inside the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. The area mixes late‑Victorian terraces, interwar flats and short runs of shopfronts serving everyday needs. Small grocers, cafés and pubs sit alongside railway arches that house workshops, studios and independent traders. Greyhound Road tube station opens directly onto the street and a parade of shops clusters around the entrance, giving the stretch a local high‑street feel rather than a single commercial spine.

Rail infrastructure shapes many routes here: the brick engine sheds of the former Lillie Bridge Depot back onto service roads and are visible from the bridge, while viaducts and goods sidings influence street patterns and pedestrian shortcuts. Daily life moves between local shops, community halls and small green courtyards; car parks and church halls are used for occasional markets and events. Recent reuse of warehouses and arches has added studios, gyms and specialist retailers without large-scale redevelopment, so the area retains a mix of residential streets, light industry and everyday services.
