Location
A small area on the eastern edge of the London Borough of Brent, Kensal Green borders the boroughs of Westminster to the East, and Kensington and Chelsea to the South. The London Borough of Brent ( is a London borough in north west London, UK and forms part of Outer London. The City of Westminster ( is a borough of London with city status. The Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea ( (often abbreviated to RBKC) is a London borough in the west side of Central London. Surrounding neighbourhoods include Willesden Green to the north, Harlesden to the West, Brondesbury and Queens Park to the East and Ladbroke Grove to the south. Willesden is an area in North West London which forms part of the London Borough of Brent. Harlesden is a suburban town in the London Borough of Brent. Its main focal point is the Jubilee Clock which commemorates Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee. Brondesbury is an area of Kilburn in London, England. It is shared between the boroughs of Brent and Camden. Queen's Park is an area of North West London divided between the London Borough of Brent and the City of Westminster. Notting Hill is an area in West London, England close to the north-western corner of Hyde Park, and lying within the Royal Borough of Kensington and
The names Kensal Green and Kensal Rise are used interchangeably to denote the same neighbourhood, although some do attempt to differentiate between the areas based on proximity to the local tube and train stations. Roughly speaking, the area west of Chamberlayne Road and south of Kensal Rise railway station is considered Kensal Green while east of Chamberlayne Road and north of the station is considered Kensal Rise. Kensal Rise railway station is on the North London Line on Chamberlayne Road Kensal Rise in north west London. These boundaries are by no means fixed however and residents are known to use both terms with little regard for geographical accuracy.
A third area south of Harrow Road, around the area of Kensal Road is infrequently referred to as Kensal Town. The Harrow Road is an ancient route in Greater London which runs from Paddington in a northwesterly direction to Harrow. Since Harrow Road is generally considered to be the southern boundary of Kensal Green, most residents class Kensal Road and its environs as part of Westbourne Park. Once again, this is in no way an official classification.
History
Recorded as 'Kingisholt' ('The King's Wood') in 1253, the name Kensal Green is first mentioned in 1550. A map of 1849 shows that The Green lay immediately to the west of Flowerhills Lane (now Kilburn Lane), between what is now Regent Street and Harrow Road, with The Plough (see below) at its north-east corner.
In the Middle Ages the land in the surrounding areas was owned by the Countess of Richmond (the mother of King Henry VII) and All Souls' College, Oxford. All Souls College (in full The Warden and College of the Souls of all Faithful People deceased in the University of Oxford) is one of the constituent colleges There was also a small manor of Chamberlayne Wood, named after Richard de Camera, an early-13th century priest who received income from the land. There were sheep farms between Kensal Green and Harlesden.
In the 18th century, along with farms and two larger houses, there was an inn called the Plough (frequented by artist George Morland). The 18th century lasted from 1701 to 1800 in the Gregorian calendar, in accordance with the Anno Domini / Common Era numbering system George Morland (1763-1804 was an English painter of animals and rustic scenes After 1814 the Green was used as a shooting range by the Cumberland Sharpshooters, a local rifle club.

In the beginning of the 19th century the small hamlet of Kensal Green lived around the activities on the Grand Junction Canal. The 19th century of the Common Era began on January 1, 1801 and ended on December 31, 1900, according to the Gregorian calendar The Grand Junction Canal is a Canal in England from Braunston in Northamptonshire to the River Thames at Brentford, with Barges with such cargoes as iron, coal, waste paper and gravel were towed through Kensal Green. A brick works was set up and the growth of the village began. In 1823, the Green was divided into plots for cottages owned by local tradesmen and inhabited by the poor.
The real growth of Kensal Green began in connection with the All Souls' Cemetery. A cemetery is a place in which dead bodies and cremated remains are buried. It was opened on 24 January 1833 to solve the problem with burial grounds in London and soon became the place to be laid to rest amongst many prominent Victorians. The construction of two railways, the London & Birmingham line to the north and the Great Western line to the south, in 1837-8 facilitated the growth of Kensal Rise which became a London suburb. The London and North Western Railway (LNWR L&NWR was a Railway company of the United Kingdom which existed between 1846 and 1922 The Great Western Railway ( GWR) was a British railway company and a notable example of Civil engineering, linking London with the West

Large scale housing construction followed, mainly two-storey cottages. Sanitation was poor, and many residents kept pigs. Indeed, the slaughtering and selling off of a pig at the Plough was one of the highlights of the week. Towards the end of the 19th century local landlords All Souls College, Oxford stepped up the urban development. Chamberlayne Road was built to connected Kensal Green with Willesden Green. The new area was called Kensal Rise. Kensal Green Station was renamed Kensal Rise in 1890. Kensal Rise railway station is on the North London Line on Chamberlayne Road Kensal Rise in north west London.
Schools and churches opened between 1877 and 1913. Housing now stretched all the way to Harlesden. Of interest are the houses built by Charles Langler and Charles Pinkham, like those in Clifford Gardens (about 1897) with decorated facades.
Despite the proximity of respectable Queens Park to the east, and gifts of land, libraries and clubs by Victorian philanthropists, Kensal Green had a reputation of being a near slum, although some better off people, like clerks, accounts and salesmen employed in the City lived here, too. Queen's Park is an area of North West London divided between the London Borough of Brent and the City of Westminster.
Amongst the leisure facilities in the area were the National Athletic Grounds (the site of Whitmore Gardens today) laid out in 1890; Kensal Rise Library, opened by Mark Twain in 1900, as well as Kensal Green Lawn Tennis Club (1906) and the Constitutional Club (1909).

At the turn of the century many houses were overcrowded and lacked full amenities. As late as 1971 25% of Kensal Green housing lacked full amenities. Not enough attempts to redevelop the area in the 1950s–1970s were made, and even those met with strong local opposition. The 1950s Decade refers to the years of 1950 to 1959 inclusive This article is about the Decade 1970-1979 For the Year 1970 see 1970. This saved Kensal Green's many Victorian houses all of which by now have been renovated.
Demographics
Nestled between areas of prosperity and urban degradation, Kensal Green is a contradiction in terms typical of many inner city neighbourhoods that has led to an eclectic mix of residents.
Up until the early-1980s the largest ethnic group in Kensal Green, and its environs (such as Harlesden, Willesden, Cricklewood and Kilburn) was Irish immigrants but the area also boasted a sizeable Afro-Caribbean contingent. The 1980s was the decade spanning from January 1 1980 to December 31 1989. Harlesden is a suburban town in the London Borough of Brent. Its main focal point is the Jubilee Clock which commemorates Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee. Willesden is an area in North West London which forms part of the London Borough of Brent. Cricklewood is a district of North London, England whose northeastern part is in the London Borough of Barnet, western part is the London Borough of Ireland (pronounced /ˈaɾlənd/ Éire) is the third largest island in Europe, and the twentieth-largest island in the world Over the course of the two decades the Irish community has reduced in size, although the legacy of their presence remains, not least in the number of Irish pubs that continue to populate the area.
In the late-1980s the area gained an unenviable reputation as a run down and crime-ridden district, a name that the area has found hard to shake due to a number of high-profile crimes that have garnered widespread media attention. It was a reputation that led author John Preston to note:
'When he first moved to Kensal Green, Hugh had assumed that it would only be a matter of time before the area came up in the world. John Preston (b December 11, 1945, Medfield Massachusetts &ndash d After all, it was close to fashionable areas such as Notting Hill and Ladbroke Grove. Notting Hill is an area in West London, England close to the north-western corner of Hyde Park, and lying within the Royal Borough of Kensington and Notting Hill is an area in West London, England close to the north-western corner of Hyde Park, and lying within the Royal Borough of Kensington and But, as he'd discovered, there were certain parts of London that remained immune from any form of gentrification. Kensal Green was one of them; it seemed to have fallen off the property map altogether. '
Recent years have seen a renaissance in the neighbourhood's fortunes. Due to the explosion in the London property market and Kensal Green's central location and excellent transport links, large numbers of young professional couples and families with young children, as well as many artists and media sector employees have flocked to the area. This shift has been mirrored by the number of furniture stores, luxury delicatessens and 'trendy' gastropubs that have recently opened on Chamberlayne Road. A gastropub (or "gastro pub" is a British term for a Public house which specializes in high-quality food a step above the more basic " pub grub
Transport
One of the key reasons that Kensal Green has proved so popular with young professionals in recent years is its excellent transport links.

From February 2007 the London Congestion Charge extends into Kensington and Chelsea and reaches as far north as Harrow Road, the southern boundary of Kensal Green. The London congestion charge is a fee for some motorists travelling within those parts of London designated as the Congestion Charge Zone (CCZ Any vehicles travelling south down Ladbroke Grove or east along Harrow Road and into Central London are liable to pay the £8 daily charge between 7. 00AM and 6. 30PM Monday to Friday.
Local residents have expressed concern that drivers seeking to avoid paying the congestion charge will move their route north through the streets of Kensal Green. While this problem will in all probability affect all areas north of the charge zone, it may be a particular problem in Kensal Rise due to the fact that the main north-south artery through the neighbourhood, Chamberlayne Road, already suffers from congestion during peak times, as do Harvist Road and Harrow Road, two important east-west arteries.
Crime
For such a small area of London, Kensal Green has attracted a disproportional amount of media coverage for a number of highly newsworthy crimes leading to dis-tasteful jokes about the 'appropriately situated cemetery'.
In November 2001, three men and two women were wounded when three masked men opened fire at the now defunct Cactus Club on Station Terrace.
In September 2003, a 7-year-old Toni-Ann Byfield was shot dead along with her father in a bedsit on Harrow Road. The killer was apprehended and convicted in the summer of 2006.
