Index of Places
The localities and attractions featured on Hidden London*
![]()
The places listed below are in the Gazetteer section unless marked as being in The Guide
Places in the Gazetteer section are mostly districts and localities, while those in the Guide tend to be smaller – often an individual structure. To help you find them more easily, some places with multiple identities are double-indexed – like (New) Caledonian Market, also known as Bermondsey (Square) Antiques Market.
For each attraction or locality, the parent borough is shown in brackets after its name. You can view an annotated map of the London boroughs on this page. Where a place straddles two or more boroughs, they are named in order of local significance.

* It is the ultimate aim of Hidden London to feature every locality and attraction of any interest whatsoever. For the sake of completeness – and because it’s hard to draw the line when it comes to questions of obscurity – this will include even those places that many readers will not consider to be at all ‘hidden’. However, to keep this index to a manageable size, articles about better known places are not included above, though you may come across them via internal links or through searching.
