Ah yes. If you’re that end then Greenwich is a trek. Plenty of central parks, Buckingham Palace (if it’s open). Kew Gardens is always worth a visit, but a bit further out west.
I used to work in Bayswater, on Westbourne Grove. Got the bus through Kensington/Notting Hill Gate every day, from Wandsworth, where I lived.
