marc520: "The Kensington District" by G. E. Mitton is a historical account written in the early 20th century. It serves as part of a series that offers a comprehensive survey of London, focusing specifically on the Kensington area. The work captures the historical significance and various associations of the district, intertwining its past with the present through anecdotes and notable figures linked to the locale. The opening of the book sets the tone by outlining the scope of Kensington and its boundaries while introducing key locations and historical figures connected to the area. Mitton discusses the varying perceptions of Kensington, highlighting its rich heritage that has evolved over the centuries. Notably, he mentions Kensington Square, the Palace, and Gardens, presenting a vivid picture of a district steeped in history, where literary giants such as Thackeray once resided and significant royal events unfolded. The narrative not only provides geographical demarcations but also enriches the reader’s understanding of the socio-cultural legacy that Kensington holds.
