I scanned a baker’s dozen of the Streets of London series from July 2007.

Porchester Gardens W2

Porchester Gardens,

Queensborogh Passage W2 7.07

Queensborough Passage,

Streets of London Queensborough Mews W2 7.07

and Queensborough Mews are all in Bayswater’s W2 district,

as is Porchester Terrace.

The Catholic Church of St Mary of the Angels in Moorhouse Road is also visible from the corner of Head’s Mews.

Fulton Mews demands various viewpoints.

Westbourne Grove W11, Ledbury Road W11 7.07

Over at the Notting Hill area Westbourne Grove, W11,

Westbourne Grove Mews W11 7.07

 

Westbourne Grove Mews,

Ledbury Road W11 7.07

and Ledbury Road were all preparing for the Notting Hill Carnival. All the shops put up barricades against the inevitable damage, including the use of wialls and doorways as urinals.
