Paddington Recreation Ground
Paddington Recreation Ground, actually in Maida Vale, was saved for public use in the 19th century as the surrounding land was built up. Today it is administered by City of Westminster Council and incorporates facilities for a wide variety of sports. This area in front of the pavilion, called the Village Green, has an (artificial) cricket pitch.

The Carlton Tavern, Maida Vale
The story of this pub is extraordinary. In April 2015 it was demolished by its owner, a shady Israeli property development company called CLTX Ltd, unexpectedly and without permission. Apparently even the pub's manager was given no warning. The intention was to redevelop the site with a block of flats incorporating a ground floor bar. A month later Westminster Council issued an enfrocement notice to 'recreate in facsimile the building as it stood immediately prior to its demolition'. The enforcement notice was upheld at a public planning inquiry and the owners were forced to commence rebuilding the pub. As it happened, Historic England had just completed a full architectural survey, with a view to grade II listing as a fine example of a 1920s public house built for Charrington Brewery to a design by Frank J. Potter. The pub finally reopened in April 2021 following a delay due to Covid restrictions. It is hard, at a glance, to realise that this is a facsimile and interesting to compare with this image of the building as it was in 2007: Image
