Re: Just a nice period picture
Quick one before I nip off to work...
Kensal Road, 1969, the nearest Mini looks like it's on period alloys but I can't quite make out what they are...

Re: Just a nice period picture
Quite a few streets in that area vanished under the new construction of the Westway / A40(M) at the time, including the one my Great Gran lived in for a while. No Minis in these pics but they show just how run down parts of West London were in the '60s and 'early '70s...mk1 wrote:Raasay St, North Ken, doesn't even exist now.
Golborne Road, Paddington...
Hurstway Street, 1969...
Railway Mews, 1970...
If any of these still exist they're probably quite gentrified by now, with a price tag to match.

If the rumours are to be believed there are quite a few corpses under there too
