The Westway Walk

Aidan McManus explores Notting Hill’s social history, from migrant communities and the1958 riots to carnival, counterculture and the Westway.

The walk looks at the area’s working-class, artistic and musical histories and the changes brought by gentrification. Meet at Westbourne Park station on Great Western Road. The native page advertises two hours while the dated booking page declares two and a half; both versions are retained. Public departures can be booked online or joined and paid for on the day; privately arranged tours are separate. Dated booking start and end instants are preserved individually. Accessibility and walking pace requirements are not specified.
