Map 135

Posh town houses rub shoulders somewhat uneasily with housing estates here, and there’s no denying the walk from Oval Station can be dodgy, but if you’re a fan of cricket, the presence of the Oval cricket ground more than makes up for it. When there’s a match on, the area fills to the brim, but normally it’s a modest and unimposing neighbourhood. Organic foodies delight in the Oval Farmers’ Market and vegan ex-squat The Bonnington Café.
