Hyde Park Square is a residential, tree-planted, garden square one block north of Hyde Park fronted by classical buildings, many of which are listed and marks a crossover of Lancaster Gate and Connaught Village neighbourhoods of Bayswater, London. It measures (internally) 200 by 500 feet, of which the bulk is the private communal garden – the rest is street-lit, pavemented streets with low railings in front of the houses. Connaught Street runs eastwards from the square towards the Edgware Road.
Aside from an approach street or road at its four corners it marks the end of:
Clarendon Place, a broad-pavemented 156-metre approach road, and
Connaught Street, which features high street services, coffee shops and restaurants, including Connaught Village.
Numbering runs in one set for each side, anticlockwise, from south-east:
1, 2
10 (large), 13 to 20A, 21 (co-fronts and shared building with 43 & 43A Gloucester Square);
22 to 24
30 to 37 (37 being a shared building with 8 Clarendon Place), 38 to 47 (slightly below average in their frontage width).
The square measures, internally, Шаблон:Convert by Шаблон:Convert, of which the bulk is the private communal garden – the rest is street-lit, pavemented streets with low railings in front of the houses.
