South West London
Two green corners of south-west London: Twickenham on the Thames and Wandsworth Common beside its park, each with direct trains to the centre.
Twickenham lies on the Thames in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. The town is known for its walks along the river, its independent cafés and restaurants and the open space of Twickenham Green, and Richmond and Teddington are close by. Twickenham station has direct trains to London Waterloo, so the centre of the city stays within reach while the pace of life is slower.
Wandsworth Common is a leafy residential area in the London Borough of Wandsworth, known for its large open spaces, its village-style high streets and its family atmosphere. It sits between Earlsfield, Tooting and Balham, with Clapham Common close by and Battersea Park within easy reach. Wandsworth Common, Earlsfield and Tooting Bec stations connect it by rail and the Northern line to Clapham Junction, Waterloo, Victoria and the City, and Bellevue Road and Garratt Lane have independent cafés, restaurants and boutiques.
Both neighbourhoods are family places, with parks and green spaces close by and a wide choice of primary, secondary and independent schools. This district brings together two completed developments by London Square, part of the Aldar Group: Twickenham Green and Wandsworth Common.
