Porchester Square is an archetypal-format, narrow London garden square in Bayswater on the cusp of inter-related Westbourne. It is lined with tall white Victorian classical architecture residential buildings.
It is half of one large block south of the closing section of the Great Western Main Line that leads into London Paddington station.
