Fifth Avenue, Kensal Rise
This is part of the Queen's Park estate, developed in the 1870s/80s by the Artizans', Labourers' and General Dwellings Company, with tree-lined roads and an area set aside for recreation. Gardening was encouraged and there was to be provision for an institute, cooperative stores, coal depot, dairy farm, baths, and reading rooms, but no public house. Avenues numbered from 1 to 6 were laid out leading north from Harrow Road and south to the canal, and connected by long cross streets. (Information from British History Online.)

Canal loading door in modern building
This building by the Grand Union Canal has a large door opening straight onto the canal, for loading from barges. The building has recently been extensively refurbished and reclad, and the door is this stylish effort. Photo across the canal.

Droop Street, W10
This is Droop Street.
As featured on "Funny British Street Names" http://www.thecareerbreaksite.com/funny-british-street-names.
and no doubt other sites.
At least it's in London, not Swindon or Salisbury.
Droop Street, Wilts, would be too bad....

Metallic building next to the Flora pub, Harrow Road
Offices or housing? Difficult to tell. The 'first floor' wall hides a small courtyard. Seen from the towpath of the Grand Union Canal's Paddington Branch.

The Flora, Harrow Road W10
Not immediately recognizable as a pub from the canal side. It looks a good deal smarter from the road.
