Turnchapel Mews is a charming Victorian gated and cobbled courtyard in south London, situated in the Borough of Lambeth and accessed from Cedars Road at the opposite end to Cedar Mews. Set behind tall electronically operated iron gates within an original brick archway, this secluded cul-de-sac has retained much of its historic character. The brickwork outside Turnchapel Mews bears the faded ghost of an old sign, with remnants of the wording referring to horses being bought and sold and horses and carriages being available for hire, providing an evocative reminder of the area’s former equestrian and coaching history. The mews is also distinguished by its notable former residents, including celebrated author Roald Dahl and British artist Euan Uglow.

Turnchapel Mews is ideally located between Clapham Common and Battersea Park, with Clapham High Street, Clapham Old Town, Lavender Hill, Battersea Rise and Northcote Road all within easy reach. The surrounding area offers an excellent choice of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and cultural attractions, while Battersea Power Station and the wider Nine Elms development are also nearby. Clapham Common Underground Station and Wandsworth Road Overground Station are both approximately a 10-minute walk away, providing convenient connections across London. Combining a peaceful gated setting with period architecture, fascinating history and excellent local amenities, Turnchapel Mews is a distinctive and highly desirable address in Clapham.
