Banister Road just scrapes being classed as belonging to the Queen’s Park Estate.
The rest of the W10 postal area is politically part of the City of Westminster (the Queen’s Park Estate) or the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (North Kensington and Kensal Town).
Banister Road is the exception, being part of the London Borough of Brent.
It was built to provide a short cut between Kilburn Lane and the then newly-constructed Chamberlayne Road.
