Published in the mid-19th century, this work presents an incredible history of Paddington, an area within the City of Westminster in central London. Paddington was a civil parish and metropolitan borough. It was an ancient parish in the county of Middlesex, governed by an administrative vestry. The writer includes insightful historical facts about the site and the events that shaped the history of this place. In addition, short biographies of famous people that lived there are present in the book.
At the beginning of the 19th century Paddington was still a rural area but London was fast developing and Paddington, Kilburn, St John's Wood, Primrose Hill, Camden Town and Kentish Town were all rapidly expanding. Many of the Georgian houses and terraces built during this time have survived.
