The main altnet providers active across London, including Community Fibre, G.Network and Hyperoptic, are all operating in the capital. G.Network in particular has been expanding its London footprint during 2026, though no specific announcement has been confirmed for these three villages at the time of writing. Coverage at a postcode level can vary considerably even within the same borough, so checking availability directly is always the most reliable approach.
One important deadline affects every household in the area regardless of broadband provider. Openreach is switching off the old copper PSTN phone network in January 2027. Openreach has confirmed that any customer who has not yet moved to a digital phone service by that date will not face an immediate cut-off, but the transition still needs to happen. If you use a traditional landline, your provider should have contacted you about moving to a VoIP or fibre-based phone service. If they have not, it is worth getting in touch with them now.
