Living in Hammersmith

Overview

An arty riverside district that attracts music lovers from all over, for their world-famous gig venues. Surrounded by parks such as Ravenscourt Park and Holland Park, and close to the River Thames, you’ll find plenty of places to wander (and walk off that Sunday lunch). King Street is lined with busy shops and cafes, and trendy gastropubs keep Hammersmith alive. But the place to be mostly in Hammersmith is down by the river, watching the world go by.
