Fermoy Road
A stub of this road which connected Great Western Road with Harrow Road - the main section which parallels Harrow Road has been separated by a barrier to prevent the road being used as a rat run by motorists.
On the wall of the corner building a partly obliterated sign advertises a Fish Bar. The Trellick Tower forms an imposing backdrop to the white van in the foreground, engaged in a furniture delivery.

Canal basin seen across the Paddington Arm of the Grand Union Canal
The Paddington Arm of the then Grand Junction Canal was opened in 1801 from Bull's Bridge near Southall to Paddington Basin. The canals were initially a success, particularly for transporting coal, building materials and other bulky loads, but the rise of the railways not long after the canals were built substantially reduced their importance. Now they are primarily a leisure facility. The Paddington Arm was one of the last to see the old-fashioned style of regular commercial traffic of paired narrow boats carrying the traditional materials such as coal, oils, and tar. The Paddington Arm now sees regular commercial traffic, usually in the form of aggregates. What was then the Central Electricity Generating Board laid cables under some of the towpaths in the 1970s and made them suitable for pedestrians again.
The towpath is followed by the Grand Union Canal Walk. This section is between Ladbroke Grove and Great Western Road and looks across to a basin where some narrow boats are moored. Fermoy Road is beyond.

This is at the end of the redeveloped Hormead Wharf, but an actual inlet here was never mapped when the wharf was active.
