Brackenbury Village is a residential district of west London between the Goldhawk Road, King Street, Hammersmith Grove and Ravenscourt Park. It is named after Brackenbury Road in which there is a small parade of shops which form the heart of the self-styled village. This includes Sisi's (Hardware & Ironmonger), Hepsibah (Gallery & Hatmaker) and Stenton's (Traditional family butchers). The name of the area came from estate agent descriptions,^[1]^[2] with houses in the area selling for over a million being seen regularly.^[1] The area has one of Britain's best all-girl schools, Godolphin and Latymer School and the highly publicised Toby Young's

West London Free School Primary.
