Portobello Road is split into two sections by the Westway/Hammersmith and City line.

Like the southern end of Portobello Road, the northern section began its life as a country track called Green Lane. It became Portobello Lane after Portobello Farm, itself renamed after a famous navel battle.

The northern W10 section developed a different character from the southern W11 end - while the famous market stretches into both postcodes, the northern end is much more local and somewhat less antiques-based. At the far northern end the road develops into a residential character.

The Underground Map project is creating street histories for the areas of London and surrounding counties lying within the M25.

The aim of the project is to find the location every street in London, whether past or present, and tell its story. This project aims to be a service to historians, genealogists and those with an interest in urban design.

The website features a series of maps from the 1750s until the 1950s. You can see how London grows over the decades.
