About

Westbourne sits in the north-west of the City of Westminster, arranged around Westbourne Grove and Westbourne Park Road. Street names and the area’s identity come from the River Westbourne, now routed through culverts beneath the roads. The layout mixes terraced housing, small blocks of flats and rows of ground-floor shops and cafés. Westbourne Green, a small public triangle at the junction of Harrow Road and Westbourne Park Road, provides open space and a local meeting point for nearby streets and playgrounds.

Local life is shaped by short commercial streets, local services and frequent buses along Harrow Road. The area has Victorian shopfronts and corner stores alongside newer outlets, with a pattern of residents’ associations and community-run activities. Short walking distances make everyday errands practical; primary schools, places of worship and health centres are interspersed among the housing. The buried river’s name lives on in street signs and place names, a reminder of the older landscape beneath the present streets.
