Wall on Portobello Road
The northeastern end of Portobello Road beyond the Hammersmith and City line and A40 bridges is lined with a very interesting wall which has plastic boarding with the spines of LP sleeves on it. I suppose this has been done in order to reflect the number of record shops and stalls in the area. I'm not sure if this is a recent idea or one that has been here for some time - the Streetview of the location (as near as I could get it, the car obviously hasn't covered this section of the road) (http://www.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=Portobello+Road,+Kensington&sll=53.800651,-4.064941&sspn=20.594096,62.53418&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Portobello+Rd,+Kensington,+Greater+London,+United+Kingdom&ll=51.521076,-0.209619&spn=0.021095,0.061069&z=15&layer=c&cbll=51.521076,-0.209619&panoid=MTtW7bTtmJP80DrNBKKxNQ&cbp=12,134.4,,0,2.87) doesn't show it being there. It's certainly a very inventive and thoughtful idea! Looking east-southeast.

They're trees Jim - but not as we know them!
This is the eastern end of Raddington Road, just where it crosses Portobello Road. The trees are London plane Plantanus x acerifolia, a hybrid with characteristic piebald bark. This natural bark-shedding feature makes the trees pollution tolerant because absorbed, airborne pollutants are shed with the old bark. Here they have been branch pollarded and, in the spring, will produce new growth from the knobbly ends.
