Notting Hill Escorts

Notting Hill is an area in west London, England, close to the north-western corner ofKensington Gardens, in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. It is a cosmopolitan district known as the location for the annual Notting Hill Carnival, the setting for the 1999 filmNotting Hill starring Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant, and for being home to the Portobello Road Market.[1]
Notting Hill has a contemporary reputation as an affluent and fashionable area;[2] known for attractive terraces of large Victorian townhouses, and high-end shopping and restaurants (particularly around Westbourne Grove and Clarendon Cross). A Daily Telegraph article in 2004 used the phrase the 'Notting Hill Set'[3] to refer to a group of young Conservativepoliticians, such as leader David Cameron and George Osborne, the Chancellor of the Exchequer. However, the large houses have also provided multi-occupancy rentals for much of the 20th century, attracting Caribbean immigrants in the 1950s who eventually clashed with the white Teddy boys in the Notting Hill race riots.
Notting Hill has had an association with artists and "alternative" culture since its development in the 1820s.[4][5] There are also areas of deprivation to the north,[6] sometimes referred to asNorth Kensington, or Ladbroke Grove, from the name of the street.
The origin of the name "Notting Hill" is uncertain[7] though an early version appears in the Patent Rolls of 1356 as Knottynghull,[8][9] while an 1878 text, Old and New London, reports that the name derives from a manor in Kensington called "Knotting-Bernes,", "Knutting-Barnes," or "Nutting-barns",[5] and goes on to quote from a court record during Henry VIII's reign that "the manor called Notingbarons, alias Kensington, in the parish of Paddington, was held of the Abbot of Westminster". For years, it was thought to be a link with Canute, but it is now thought likely that the "Nott" section of the name is derived from the Saxon personal name Cnotta,[10] with the "ing" part generally accepted as coming from the Saxon for a group or settlement of people.
