London area of W10 guide
What to do and where to stay in London's W10 neighbourhood
The North Kensington district of W10 includes the areas of North Kensington, Queen's Park and parts of Ladbroke Grove and Kensal Town. Towering over the whole of W10 is Trellick Tower, the iconic 31-storey block of flats designed in the Brutalist style by the Erno Goldfinger, the architect on whom Ian Flemming based one of his early Bond villains of the same name. One of the most cosmopolitan areas of London, North Kensington boasts the largest Moroccan population in England. W10 includes the notorious Westway flyover as well as the Kensal Green Cemetery, where the engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel and the novelists Anthony Trollope and William Makepeace Thackery are buried. The area near Ladbroke Grove tube also boasts a range of clothing and jewellery markets which make up an extension to the nearby Portobello Market in neighbouring W11.
