Seen from Norfolk Place. After the station, Paddington is probably best known for this large teaching hospital which occupies a site between Praed Street and Paddington Basin. Its main claim to fame is Sir Alexander Fleming's discovery of penicillin here in 1928; there is a small museum on site dedicated to his memory.
