Paddington (Circle / Hammersmith & City): Location and Local Orientation
Paddington (Circle / Hammersmith & City) is a named Underground station in TfL’s network, with the station position published at latitude 51.51819, longitude -0.17831. Check the official station map for the precise street entrance before requesting a cab; the captured record does not publish a street address. Its Underground fare-zone reference is 1; a Tube fare zone does not set the price of a taxi or minicab. TfL also identifies Paddington with Bakerloo, Circle, and District services separately. Include the line or station site in your collection instructions.
The closest other Underground station positions in this directory are Paddington (0.25 km), Edgware Road (Bakerloo) (0.61 km), and Warwick Avenue (0.68 km). Those figures are straight-line distances calculated from TfL coordinates, not walking routes, station interchanges or journey-time estimates.
Named Places Around Paddington (H&C Line)
Named green-space landmarks around Paddington (H&C Line) include St Mary's Gardens (public park or garden, approximately 0.32 km to the mapped boundary); Warwick Gardens (public park or garden, approximately 0.36 km to the mapped boundary); Little Venice Sports Centre (other sports facility, approximately 0.45 km to the mapped boundary). These are straight-line distances derived from the TfL station position and Ordnance Survey’s April 2026 mapped site polygons. A boundary can be much closer than a usable entrance: these figures do not describe walking routes, road access or a place for a driver to wait.
If your journey ends at St Mary's Gardens, give its own entrance or street address when booking. A taxi booking for the Underground station identifies a different destination from the surrounding park, grounds or sports site. Confirm visitor arrangements with the site before travelling.

Luggage, Access and Your Minicab Meeting Point
