Briar Walk is located within a short walk of Putney Common and Barnes Common and is well served by excellent public transport links to Central London, the City and Heathrow and Gatwick airports. It is a very quiet road of substantial, period properties which are home to a number of high-profile personalities from various walks of life, (the arts, business and finance).

No 3 Briar Walk has for over 30 years been the much-loved home of the family of a Member of The House of Lords, well-known for his career as a distinguished sportsman.
