Walham Green

In the 19th century Counter's Creek became the Kensington Canal, soon to be replaced by the West London Railway, and Walham Green acquired its own parish church of St John in 1828 on the site of the village pond.A triangle – by the bus turning alley, with an office block on it – is the site of Frank Matcham's old Granville Theatre, which closed in 1971.The Royal Mail sorting office is nearby as are four supermarkets, one of them large with a car park and one that specialises in organic produce.The rest of Walham Green village has been subsumed in several conservation areas and is today considered a desirable place to live for young professionals and Chelsea 'overspill'.Nearby attractions include Parson's Green, the bars, clubs and restaurants of the New King's Road and Chelsea Harbour.
