Map of the UK

Addison is a ward in the north of the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham, in west London. It sits near Shepherd's Bush and Holland Park and blends tree‑lined Victorian and Edwardian terraces with pockets of post‑war social housing; many residents commute across the capital thanks to strong tube and bus connections.

The ward takes its name from nearby Addison Road, itself named for the essayist Joseph Addison, and lies close to big regeneration sites such as White City - home to the redeveloped BBC Television Centre and Westfield - and the exhibition hub at Olympia. That mix of long‑standing communities, redevelopment and local campaigning gives the area a culturally diverse high‑street scene, active residents’ groups and a visible focus on housing and public‑space issues.
