Chiswick’s Man and Van

When looking for a home in or around London it can take a long time to find that place that's just right for you. We can't risk choosing somewhere unsuitable so we have look at each areas diligently and then go into detail on the specific location when necessary and the best way to do this is through postcode regions. There are many in London including the W postcode district which is for the Western and Paddington areas. It covers parts of central and western London, going alongside the River Thames. It is one of the larger areas in London and encompasses Westminster, Camden, Kensington & Chelsea, Ealing, Hounslow, Hammersmith & Fulham and Brent.

If the overall area sounds right for you but you still need to narrow down your search then you should look into each postcode subdivisions. Each area of London has them as they have been created ever since 1917 in an effort to make geographic navigation simpler, improve the quality of street signs and make mail delivery easier.

The other postcodes for W are used for Paddington are W2 to W14.
