    Notting Hill Facts
    Did you know…

    1. A Bit Potty
      Thanks to the thick, clay soil, a large number of brick kilns operated here in the 19th century. Pottery Lane is now one of Notting Hill’s most desirable addresses.
    2. Place Is A Pigsty!
      Having been kicked out of Marble Arch, a group of pig farmers and their porcine pals made Notting Hill home. Holes left from excavating clay, soon filled up with the slurry from thousands of pigs, the stench made the area hugely undesirable.
    3. Whoops-a-daisy
      It was wealthy landowner James Ladbroke who gentrified this outer London wilderness. He built grand homes in squares formed around exclusive communal gardens. Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts can be seen breaking into one such garden in Notting Hill. “Whoops-a-daisy!”
    4. Blitz
      As the borough fell out of fashion, the grand buildings became HMOs (Houses of Multiple Occupancy), largely rented out to Commonwealth immigrants, living in squalid conditions thanks to unscrupulous landlords. New laws were created to stamp out poor treatment.
    5. Coat of Many Colours
      Despite often tough living conditions, this influx of post war immigration (the Windrush generation) created a diverse melting pot of art, food, music from Africa, the Caribbean and Asia.
    6. Carnival
      After race riots in the 50s and 60s, Rhaune Laslett, a community leader and steel drum player, organised a children’s event and parade. Today it’s become the second largest carnival in the world (after Rio), attracting over 2 million visitors and boosting the local economy.
    7. And They’re Off!
      They weren’t the first riots. In 1847 landowner John Whyte enclosed the slopes of Notting Hill with 7ft fences to create a racecourse. The fences blocked routes used by the pig farmers, who really kicked up a stink. The racecourse closed just 5 years later and the area was bought up for the development of grand homes, using locally made bricks.

    About

    Pigs and potters, carnivals and ‘whoopsie daisies’, Notting Hill has had a varied and at times controversial past. Today it’s considered to be one of London’s most colourful areas and is home to Europe’s largest street festival.

    A diverse melting pot, bringing together influences from around the world, foodies, fashionistas and music fans can travel the globe without ever leaving Zone 2.

    Leisure

    The carnival might be the big event of the year, but it’s not everything Notting Hill is about. There are all kinds of festivals and events throughout the year celebrating literature, comedy, craft beer, fashion and more.

    A host of independent shops and eateries make it a very attractive place to explore and Portabello Market is one of London’s shopping highlights. Live music, comedy nights, sporting facilities and groups, clubs and societies all mean you’ll never be short of things to do.
