Leinster Square
Leinster Square

Leinster Square () and Prince's Square are mirroring garden squares in Bayswater on the cusp of Westbourne and Notting Hill. One street overlaps (is shared by) the two squares. It is within the large, 1965, additions to the City of Westminster, London, W2. The square is in a broad cluster of Victorian estates of private housing with aesthetic landscaping and architecture. These include Prince's Square of symmetrical design, which the square fronts, Hereford Road and Garway Road. It close to Westbourne Grove, the major retail road running across Notting Hill and Tube stations: Bayswater, Queensway and Notting Hill Gate. Much of the area's war damage in the London Blitz was rapidly repaired with houses rebuilt to match the original tall terraces. Grade II listed tall Victorian terraced houses encompass the square, which, on the Hereford Road side, features a proportion of restaurants and cafés. The buildings have basements with black railings, slate mansard roofs, sash windows and yellow bricks with white stucco projections, pediments and dressings. As of 2015, a string of high-end developments is taking place in the square, with new flats and townhouses built behind the façade of two former hotels.The buildings surrounding the square are listed Grade II on the National Heritage List for England. The buildings are grouped into individual listings as 1–6, 7–16, 17–20, 23–26, 21 and 22, 27–34, and 38–57 Leinster Square.35–37 and 58–64 and Leinster Square are listed in two groups with buildings in adjacent Prince's Square.
