North Kensington, Residential district in western London, England
North Kensington encompasses residential streets, local markets, and community spaces within the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea's northern section.
The area transformed from agricultural fields into a residential district during the 19th century expansion of London, with Victorian-era housing developments.
The North Kensington Library and Notting Hill Methodist Church serve as centers for community gatherings, educational programs, and social activities.
Multiple bus routes and three Underground stations connect North Kensington to central London, with Ladbroke Grove station providing direct access.
The Grenfell Tower incident in 2017 led to substantial changes in UK building regulations and community support structures.
