The civil parish of Queen’s Park in NW8 is considered a bit of a hidden gem by the residents there. It's a well-kept secret of clusters of fine houses centred around a park spanning 30-acres. Queen’s Park is a quirky and community-driven place to live, less than four miles north-west of Charing Cross. The Park itself - Queen’s Park - is truly the hub of the community and sits in the centre of the neighbourhood. Queen’s Park Day takes place annually in September and is a fun full-scale country fete with jam-making and vegetable-growing competitions, local food stalls, games and amusements.
