My favourite walk is the walk down Ladbroke Grove to Kensal Rise. It starts on the Notting Hill side (depending on your personal belief) filled with Georgian townhouses and incidentally my childhood nursery. From there, you are met with the chaos and sweat of Portobello, leading you to the bosom of Golborne Road, and eventually the heady heights of the Rise. This is how you truly see what West London means. It is a place that has always been defined by the people that have arrived there.
