The Neighborhood:
Hammersmith is an artsy riverside area, home to eclectic productions at the Lyric theatre and rock/comedy shows at the famous Apollo concert hall. Busy shops and cafes line King Street and fill the Kings Mall, while trendy gastropubs contrast with historic drinking dens like the Dove. Leafy walking trails wind along the River Thames, which is spanned by the landmark Hammersmith Bridge. The annual university boat race draws crowds from all over the city and beyond!
Local Amenities:
Hammersmith locals are never short of shopping opportunities! The main retail areas are in the Broadway Mall, King Street and King’s Mall – where you'll also find a large Sainsbury's. For a slightly quirkier neighbourhood and family-run shops, head to Askew Road where life is lived at a much more leisurely pace.
The Hammersmith Farmers’ Market takes place every Thursday in Lyric Square and sells typical organic fare as well as some unusual international delicacies.
Green Spaces:
With its central location, playing fields and idyllic lake, Ravenscourt Park provides a peaceful escape amidst the activity of busy Hammersmith. Just a short walk from the tube station, it’s a popular spot for a morning dog-walk or weekend picnic. Cross over the river via Hammersmith Bridge to discover the London Wetland Centre, which is home to several important species of wildlife and is beloved by West London locals.
Nearby River Thames:
Head down to the river by the picturesque Furnivall Gardens, alongside a waterside stretch that features grand old merchants’ homes, including Kelmscott House, which was once the home of 19th century designer and artist William Morris. It’s a very inviting spot for a waterside wander, with views across to Barnes. Hammersmith’s riverside location allows you to enjoy beautiful views as you stroll along the Thames, and there are several popular parks that stretch along the riverbank, including the popular Bishop’s Park.
