Notting hill London postcode W11 Location St Anne’s Road is perhaps the dividing road between at least two communities; no longer quite as bad as private wealth and public squalor, but somewhere on the continuum North Kensington is an area of west London lying north of Notting Hill Gate and south of Harrow Road.
