Ladbroke Grove
Ladbroke Grove () is a west London road in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, running north/south between Holland Park Avenue and Harrow Road. It is also sometimes the name given informally to the immediate surrounding area of Notting Hill and North Kensington, straddling the W10 and W11 postal districts. Ladbroke Grove tube station is located on the road, at the point where it is crossed by the Westway. The adjacent bridge and nearby section of the Westway (London) was regenerated in 2007 in a partnership including Urban Eye, Transport for London and London Underground. It is also the nearest tube station to Portobello Road Market. It is the main road on the route of the annual Notting Hill Carnival in August. The northern tip of the road is located in Kensal Green.

Hablot Knight Browne, the cartoonist who illustrated Charles Dickens' novels as "Phiz", lived at No. 99 in 1872-80.
