Norwood Green South

Norwood Green South sits around the triangular village green that gives the area its name. Streets fan out from the green into a mix of terraced and interwar semi-detached housing, with small local shops and community facilities clustered close to Church Road. A war memorial stands near the centre of the green, and a short walk leads to Norwood Green Park and allotments that sit along the fringe of residential streets. The area forms a defined conservation zone, with narrow lanes and house fronts that reflect its long-established parish layout.

At the heart of the south area is the parish church of St Mary the Virgin on Church Road, whose site has served local worship for several centuries. The conservation designation protects the group of buildings around the green and the pattern of open space, while a community centre and primary school provide focal points for residents. The River Brent runs close enough to shape some local footpaths and green corridors, linking small open spaces rather than large recreational tracts.
