Hammersmith and Fulham


Although one of the smallest boroughs, Hammersmith and Fulham is best known for Shepherds Bush – which has played home to BBC Television Centre since 1960. The BBC has seen production of world-famous programmes such as Monty Pythons Flying Circus and Blue Peter, as well as radios BBC World Service.

Hammersmith town itself houses two large shopping centres and is a bustling part of London. The riverside area has a wide variety of pubs to choose from and is the best place from which to view the annual Cambridge and Oxford Boat Race. Hammersmith Apollo and Hammersmith Palais are two of London’s favourite gig venues.

The White City area played host to the 1908 Olympic Games, and sport within the borough is well placed – stadiums in the borough include one named after Britain’s own Olympic Gold medallist Linford Christie. There are also several rowing clubs (Sir Steve Redgrave and Matthew Pinsent have also trained here along the River Thames) and a Premiership football club.
