Abstract:
This outline historic area assessment was commissioned by English Heritage's National Planning and Conservation Department in response to the emerging Park Royal City Opportunity Area Planning Framework (OAPF). It presents a preliminary snapshot of the historic character and appearance of a built landscape that will see considerable change in forthcoming years. Insights into the historical drivers of change reveal a complex and multi-layered landscape. The area initially developed as a series of linear routes driven through an agrarian landscape. Industry clustered alongside the transport network, sustained by railway sidings, canalside wharfs and improved road links. North Acton and the neighbouring Park Royal estate saw overlapping phases of industrial growth, transformation and decline throughout the twentieth century. Recent developments hint at new land uses including housing, retail and offices. The report is divided into three parts. The first summarises the historical development of the area. This is followed by a gazetteer of designated and undesignated elements, grouped by sub-areas. A third section sets out the designated heritage assets whose settings may be affected by future development within the Opportunity Area, including the Grand Union Canal, Kensal Green and St Mary's Catholic Cemeteries and Kensal House and Day Nursery.
