Location

Portland Square is a well-regarded residential area, known for its peaceful, family-friendly atmosphere and strong sense of community. Nestled near the heart of Wapping, it offers convenient access to green spaces and local amenities, while still being a short walk from the riverside and historic landmarks like St Katharine Docks and Tobacco Dock. It is located on the Ornamental Canal for tranquil walks toward the City and Waitrose Supermarket.

The nearby range of riverside pubs include the Town of Ramsgate Pub which features a lively riverside terrace, while the Turks Head café—famous for its light bites, drinks, and indulgent Cinnabon puddings—adds charm and history to the area. Once the final stop for pirates en route to execution during Victorian times, it’s now a popular family gathering spot, especially with the adjacent park and playground.
