St Mark’s Road, W10

St Mark’s Road extends beyond the Westway into the W10 area.

St Marks Road lies partly in W10 and partly in W11.

It follows the line of a footpath which used to lead south from Notting Barns Farm towards what is now Lancaster Road. The farm eventually gave its name to much of the urban area which succeeded it.

Named after the nearby church of St Mark’s, built in 1863. St Mark’s Place was originally called Chapel Road after the Baptist Chapel that stood on the north-east corner of Cornwall Crescent.
