Paddington is an area in the City of Westminster, in central London, England.[1] A medieval parish then a metropolitan borough, it was integrated with Westminster and Greater London in 1965. Paddington station, designed by the engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel opened in 1847. It is also the site of St Mary’s Hospital and the former Paddington Green Police Station.

Paddington Waterside aims to regenerate former railway and canal land. Districts within Paddington are Maida Vale, Westbourne and Bayswater including Lancaster Gate.

History[edit]

A map showing the wards of Paddington Metropolitan Borough as they appeared in 1916.

The earliest extant references to Padington (or «Padintun», as in the Saxon Chartularies, 959[2]), historically a part of Middlesex, appear in documentation of purported tenth-century land grants to the monks of Westminster by Edgar the Peaceful as confirmed by Archbishop Dunstan. However, the documents’ provenance is much later and likely to have been forged after the 1066 Norman conquest. There is no mention of the place (or Westbourne or Knightsbridge) in the Domesday Book of 1086.[3]

It has been reasonably speculated that a Saxon settlement led by the followers of Padda, an Anglo-Saxon chieftain, was located around the intersection of the northern and western Roman roads, corresponding with the Edgware Road (Watling Street) and the Harrow and Uxbridge Roads.[4][5] From the tenth century, Paddington was owned by Westminster Abbey which was later confirmed by the Plantagenet kings in a charter from 1222. This charter mentions a chapel and a farm situated in the area.[5] While a 12th-century document cited by the cleric Isaac Maddox (1697–1759) establishes that part of the land was held by brothers «Richard and William de Padinton».[6] They and their descendants carried out activities in Paddington; these were known by records dating from 1168 to 1485. They were the earliest known tenant farmers of the land.[5]

During King Henry VIII’s dissolution, the property of Paddington was seized by the crown. However, King Edward VI granted the land to the Bishop of London in 1550. Successive bishops would later lease farmlands to tenants and city merchants. One such, in the 1540s was Thomas North who translated Plutarch’s Parallel Lives into English in 1579. Shakespeare would later use this work and was said to have performed in taverns along Edgware Road.[5]

In the later Elizabethan and early Stuart era, the rectory, manor and associated estate houses were occupied by the Small (or Smale) family. Nicholas Small was a clothworker who was sufficiently well connected to have Holbein paint a portrait of his wife, Jane Small. Nicholas died in 1565 and his wife married again, to Nicholas Parkinson of Paddington who became master of the Clothworkers’ Company. Jane Small continued to live in Paddington after her second husband’s death, and her manor house was big enough to have been let to Sir John Popham, the attorney general, in the 1580s. They let the building that became in this time Blowers Inn.[7]

Early Modern period[edit]

As the regional population grew in the 17th century, Paddington’s ancient Hundred of Ossulstone was split into divisions; Holborn Division replaced the hundred for most administrative purposes.[8] A church, the predecessor of St Mary was built in Paddington in 1679.[9]

In 1740, John Frederick leased the estate in Paddington and it is from his granddaughters and their families that many of Paddington’s street names are derived.[5] The New Road was built in 1756–7 to link the villages of Paddington and Islington.[10]: 260  By 1773, a contemporary historian felt and wrote that «London may now be said to include two cities (London and Westminster), one borough (Southwark) and forty six antient [ancient] villages [among which]… Paddington and [adjoining] Marybone (Marylebone).»[9]
During the 18th century, several French Huguenots called Paddington village home. These included jewellers, nobility and skilled craftsmen; and men such as Claudius Amyand (surgeon to King George II). The French nobility built magnificent gardens that lasted up until the 19th century.[5]

Roman roads formed the parish’s northeastern and southern boundaries from Marble Arch: Watling Street (later Edgware Road) and; (the) Uxbridge road, known by the 1860s in this neighbourhood as Bayswater Road. They were toll roads in much of the 18th century, before and after the dismantling of the permanent Tyburn gallows «tree» at their junction in 1759 a junction now known as Marble Arch.[11]: p.174  The Tyburn gallows might have been a reason why expansion and urban development (from London) slowed in Paddington; as public execution was taking place there up until 1783.[5]

Paddington station first opened in 1838

Only in 1801 did major construction to Paddington occur. This happened when the bishops leased land to the Grand Junction Canal, where a direct trade link could now take place between London and the Midlands, bringing more employment to the area. The canal would remain dominant until Regent’s Canal was built in 1820. Construction and building projects would take place from east to west and south to north throughout the 19th century; increasing its population in a rapid pace, overtaking the village scene of Paddington. This population increase would go from 1,881 to 46,305 between 1801 and 1851 respectively; with 10,000 new inhabitants added every decade thereafter.[5]

Paddington station first opened in 1838, with the first underground line in 1863 (Metropolitan).[5] Paddington was one of the few districts in London that had a migrant majority population by 1881.[10]: 416  With a thriving Greek and Jewish community present in the mid-19th century. During the period, several Victorian churches were demolished owing to structural decay. Victorian housing developed into slums, giving the area an unsavoury reputation.

However, in the 1930s massive rebuilding and improvements projects were made. However, even as late as the 1950s Paddington was a byword for overcrowding, poverty and vice. Between the 1960s and 1980s, the area would see vast improvements and redevelopments in city planning.[5]

Tyburnia[edit]

The southeast section of Tyburnia used to be a shanty-town in the 1790s before the Canal was built and brought much needed employment to its inhabitants. The area was built up during the course of the Napoleonic Wars.[5]

In the 19th century the part of the parish most sandwiched between Edgware Road and Westbourne Terrace, Gloucester Terrace and Craven Hill, bounded to the south by Bayswater Road, was known as Tyburnia. The district formed the centrepiece of an 1824 masterplan by Samuel Pepys Cockerell to redevelop the Tyburn Estate (historic lands of the Bishop of London) into a residential area to rival Belgravia.[12]

The area was laid out in the mid-1800s when grand squares and cream-stuccoed terraces started to fill the acres between Paddington station and Hyde Park; however, the plans were never realised in full. Despite this, Thackeray described the residential district of Tyburnia as «the elegant, the prosperous, the polite Tyburnia, the most respectable district of the habitable globe.»[13]

Etymology[edit]

Derivation of the name is uncertain. Speculative explanations include Padre-ing-tun (explained as «father’s meadow village»), Pad-ing-tun («pack-horse meadow village»),[14] and Pæding-tun («village of the race of Pæd»)[15] the last being the cited suggestion of the Victorian Anglo-Saxon scholar John Mitchell Kemble.

There is another Paddington in Surrey, recorded in the Domesday Book as «Padendene»[16] and later as «Paddingdon», perhaps to be derived from Old English dene, denu «valley», whereas Paddington in Middlesex is commonly traced back to Old English tūn «farm, homestead, town». Both place names share the same first part, a personal name rendered as Pad(d)a, of uncertain origin, giving «Padda’s valley» for the place in Surrey and «homestead of Padda’s people» for the place in Middlesex.[2] That both place names would refer to the same individual or ancient family,[17] is pure speculation. A lord named Padda is named in the Domesday Book, associated with Brampton, Suffolk.[18]

Colloquial expressions[edit]

An 18th-century dictionary gives «Paddington Fair Day. An execution day, Tyburn being in the parish or neighbourhood of Paddington. To dance the Paddington frisk ; to be hanged.»[19] Public executions were abolished in England in 1868.[20]

Geography[edit]

The Paddington district is centred around Paddington railway station. The conventional recognised boundary of the district is much smaller than the longstanding pre-mid-19th century parish. That parish was virtually equal to the borough abolished in 1965. It is divided from a northern offshoot Maida Vale by the Regent’s Canal; its overlap is the artisan and touristic neighbourhood of Little Venice. In the east of the district around Paddington Green it remains divided from Marylebone by Edgware Road (as commonly heard in spoken form, the Edgware Road). In the south west it is bounded by its south and western offshoot Bayswater. A final offshoot, Westbourne, rises to the north west.

Governance[edit]

An 1834 map of the Parliamentary Borough of St Marylebone, showing Paddington in (green) and St Pancras (yellow). These Parliamentary Boroughs, like the subsequent Metropolitan Boroughs used the ancient parish boundaries.

Paddington was part of the Metropolitan Borough of Paddington, the headquarters of which was at Paddington Town Hall, until 1965 when the area became part of the enlarged City of Westminster.[21]

Landmarks[edit]

Browning’s Pool[edit]

A lagoon created in the 1810s at the convergence of the Paddington Arm of the Grand Union Canal, the Regent’s Canal and the Paddington Basin. It is an important focal point of the Little Venice area. It is reputedly named after Robert Browning, the poet. More recently known as the «Little Venice Lagoon» it contains a small islet known as Browning’s Island. Although Browning was thought to have coined the name «Little Venice» for this spot there are strong arguments Lord Byron was responsible.[22]

London Paddington Station[edit]

Paddington station is the iconic landmark associated with the area. In the station are statues of its designer, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and the children’s fiction character Paddington Bear.

Paddington Basin[edit]

The terminus of the Paddington Arm of the Grand Union Canal was originally known as the Paddington Basin and all the land to the south was developed into housing and commercial property and titled The Grand Junction Estate. The majority of the housing was bounded by Praed Street, Sussex Gardens, Edgware Road and Norfolk Place. Land and buildings not used for the canal undertaking remained after 1929 with the renamed Grand Junction Company, which functioned as a property company. While retaining its own name, it was taken over in 1972 by the Amalgamated Investment and Property Company, which went into liquidation in 1976. Prior to the liquidation the Welbeck Estate Securities Group acquired the entire estate comprising 525 houses 15 shops and the Royal Exchange public House in Sale Place.

The surrounding area is now known as Merchant Square. A former transshipment facility, the surrounds of the canal basin named Merchant Square have been redeveloped to provide 2,000,000 sq ft (190,000 m2) of offices, homes, shops and leisure facilities.[23] The redeveloped basin has some innovative features including Heatherwicks Rolling Bridge, the Merchant Square Fan Bridge and the Floating Pocket Park.[24]

Paddington Central[edit]

Situated to the north of the railway as it enters Paddington station, and to the south of the Westway flyover and with the canal to the east the former railway goods yard has been developed into a modern complex with wellbeing, leisure, retail and leisure facilities.[25] The public area from the canal to Sheldon Square with the amphitheatre hosts leisure facilities and special events.[26]

Paddington Green[edit]

A green space and conservation area in the east of the Paddington district immediately to the north of the Westway and west of Edgware Road. It includes St Mary on Paddington Green Church. The Paddington Green campus of the City of Westminster College is adjacent to the Green. Paddington Green Police Station is immediately to the north west of the intersection of Westway and Edgware Road.

Transport[edit]

Rail[edit]

Paddington station is on the London Underground and National Rail networks. It is in London fare zone 1.[27]

National Rail[edit]

National Rail services from Paddington run towards Slough, Maidenhead and Reading. Services calling at stations along this route are operated by TfL Rail (future: Elizabeth line) and Great Western Railway. TfL Rail services link the area to destinations in West London and Berkshire. Great Western Railway services continue towards destinations in South West England and South Wales, including Oxford, Worcester, Bristol, Cardiff, Exeter, Plymouth and Penzance.[28]

Trains to Heathrow Airport also depart from Paddington, operated by TfL Rail (stopping services via Ealing Broadway). The Heathrow Express also runs between Paddinton and Heathrow, with no intermediate stops.[27][28]

London Underground[edit]

There are two London Underground (tube) stations in the Paddington station complex.

The Bakerloo, Circle and District lines call at the station on Praed Street (which, from the main concourse, is opposite platform 3). This links Paddington directly to destinations across Central and West London, including Baker Street, Earl’s Court, Oxford Circus, South Kensington, Victoria, Waterloo, Westminster and Wimbledon.[27]

The Circle and Hammersmith & City lines call at the station near the Paddington Basin (to the north of platform 12). Trains from this station link the area directly to Hammersmith via Shepherd’s Bush to the west. Eastbound trains pass through Baker Street, King’s Cross St Pancras, Liverpool Street in the City, Whitechapel and Barking.[27]

Lancaster Gate tube station is also in the area, served by Central line trains.[27]

Heritage[edit]

Paddington station was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. The permanent building opened in 1854.

Paddington Bear was also named after the station; in Michael Bond’s 1958 book A Bear Called Paddington, Paddington is found at the station by the Brown family. He is lost, having just arrived in London from «darkest Peru.»

Buses[edit]

London Buses 7, 23, 27, 36, 46, 205 and 332, and night buses N7 and N205 serve Paddington station. Buses 23, 27 and 36 operate 24 hours, daily.[29]

Routes 94 and 148 serve Lancaster Gate station to the south of Paddington. Both routes operate 24 hours, daily, supplemented by route N207 at nights.[30]

Road[edit]

Several key routes pass through or around the Paddington area, including:

  • A40 (Westway/Marylebone Flyover) – westbound towards White City, Acton and the M40 motorway (towards Oxford and Birmingham).
  • A402 (Bayswater Road) – eastbound towards Marble Arch, Oxford Circus and Holborn (via A40/Oxford Street), and Park Lane. Westbound towards Notting Hill, Shepherd’s Bush and Chiswick.
  • A404 (Harrow Road) – northeast towards Kensal Green, Wembley and Harrow.
  • A4205 (Praed Street/Westbourne Terrace)
  • A4206 (Bishop’s Bridge Road) – southwest towards Notting Hill.
  • A4209 (Sussex Gardens)
  • A5 (Edgware Road) – southbound to Marble Arch and Park Lane. Northbound to Kilburn, Hendon, the M1 motorway and Edgware. Forms part of the London Inner Ring Road.
  • A501 (Marylebone Flyover/Marylebone Road) – eastbound towards Regent’s Park, King’s Cross and the City. Forms part of the London Inner Ring Road.

Cycling[edit]

Cycling infrastructure is provided in Paddington by Transport for London (TfL) and the Canal & River Trust.

Several cycle routes pass through the area, including:

  • Cycle Superhighway 3 (CS3) – part of the «East–West Superhighway,» CS3 begins just south of Paddington at Lancaster Gate and carries cyclists southbound through Hyde Park to South Kensington. The route continues eastbound, passing Hyde Park Corner, Embankment, Blackfriars, Tower Hill and Canary Wharf en route to Barking in the East End. The route runs predominantly on traffic-free cycle track. The route is also unbroken and signposted.[31]
  • Quietway 2 (Q2) – runs on traffic-free paths or residential streets. Westbound, the route runs unbroken and signposted to Bayswater and Ladbroke Grove en route to East Acton. Eastbound, the route is incomplete, but will run unbroken to Bloomsbury via Marylebone and Fitzrovia. As the route runs on traffic-free or low-traffic routes, it is indirect.[32]
  • Grand Union Canal towpath – a shared-use path running direct to Little Venice, Westbourne Park and Willesden, and eventually Hayes. The route is managed by the Canal & River Trust.[33]
  • Regent’s Canal towpath – runs alongside the Regent’s Canal on residential streets from Little Venice to Lisson Grove. The route then joins the towpath, heading eastbound which provides Paddington with a direct connection to Regent’s Park, Camden Town and King’s Cross. The route is managed by the Canal & River Trust.

Sustrans also propose that National Cycle Route 6 (NCR 6) will begin at Paddington and run northwest along the Grand Union Canal towpath. The route, when complete, will run signposted and unbroken to Keswick, Cumbria. Within the M25, the route will pass through Hayes, Uxbridge and Watford.[34]

Santander Cycles, a London-wide bike sharing system, operates in Paddington, with several docking stations in the area.[35]

Canal[edit]

The Rolling Bridge at Paddington is lifted. It is in an unusual curved shape, with one end lifted into the air.

The Paddington Arm of the Grand Union Canal runs from Paddington to Hayes, via Westbourne Park and Willesden. Beyond Hayes, onward destinations include Slough, the Colne Valley, and Aylesbury. The Paddington Basin is in the area, as is Little Venice. A towpath runs unbroken from Paddington to Hayes.[36]

The Rolling Bridge at the Paddington Basin was designed by Thomas Heatherwick, who wanted to create a bridge that, instead of breaking apart to let boats through, would «get out of the way» instead. Heatherwick’s website cites the «fluid, coiling tails of the animatronic dinosaurs of Jurassic Park» as the initial influence behind the Bridge.[37]

The Regent’s Canal begins at Little Venice, heading east towards Maida Vale, Regent’s Park, Camden Town, King’s Cross, Old Street and Mile End en route to Limehouse. A towpath runs along the canal from Paddington to Limehouse, broken only by the Maida Hill and Islington tunnels.[38]

Development[edit]

Commercial traffic on the Grand Junction Canal (which became the Grand Union Canal in 1929) dwindled because of railway competition in the late-19th and early-20th centuries, and freight then moved from rail to road after World War II, leading to the abandonment of the goods yards in the early 1980s. The land lay derelict until the Paddington Waterside Partnership was established in 1998 to co-ordinate the regeneration of the area between the Westway, Praed Street and Westbourne Terrace. This includes major developments on the goods yard site (now branded Paddington Central) and around the canal (Paddington Basin). As of October 2017 much of these developments have been completed and are in use.[39]

Renewal proposal, 2018–2023[edit]

PaddingtonNow BID put forward a renewal bid in 2017 covering the period April 2018 to March 2023, which would be supported by a levy on local businesses. Development schemes for St. Mary’s Hospital and Paddington Square are likely to commence in this period, and the impact of the opening of the Elizabeth line in 2018 would be soon felt.[39]

Religion[edit]

Paddington has a number of Anglican churches, including St James’s, St Mary Magdalene,St David’s Welsh Church and St Peter’s. In addition, there is a large Muslim population in and around Paddington.

Notable residents[edit]

Between 1805 and 1817, the great actress Sarah Siddons lived at Desborough House,[42] (which was demolished before 1853 to make way for the Great Western Railway) and was buried at Paddington Green, near the later graves of the eminent painters Benjamin Haydon and William Collins.[43]: p.183  Her brother Charles Kemble also built a house, Desborough Lodge, in the vicinity—in which she may have lived later.[11]: p.230  In later years, the actress Yootha Joyce, best known for her part in the classic television comedy George and Mildred, lived at 198 Sussex Gardens.[44]

One of Napoleon’s nephews, Prince Louis Lucien Bonaparte (1813–1891), a notable comparative linguist and dialectologist, who spent most of his adult life in England, had a house in Norfolk Terrace, Westbourne Park.[11]: p.200 

The eccentric philanthropist Ann Thwaytes lived at 17 Hyde Park Gardens between 1840 and 1866.[45][46]

The Victorian poet Robert Browning moved from No. 1 Chichester Road to Beauchamp Lodge, 19 Warwick Crescent, in 1862 and lived there until 1887.[11]: pp.199  He is reputed to have named that locality, on the junction of two canals, «Little Venice». But this has been disputed by Lord Kinross in 1966[47][22] and more recently by londoncanals.uk[48] who both assert that Lord Byron humorously coined the name. The name is now applied, more loosely, to a longer reach of the canal system.

St Mary’s Hospital in Praed Street is the site of several notable medical accomplishments. In 1874, C. R. Alder Wright synthesised heroin (diacetylmorphine). Also there, in 1928, Sir Alexander Fleming first isolated penicillin, earning the award of a Nobel Prize. The hospital has an Alexander Fleming Laboratory Museum[49] where visitors can see Fleming’s laboratory, restored to its 1928 condition, and explore the story of Fleming and the discovery and development of penicillin through displays and video.

Edward Wilson, physician, naturalist and ornithologist, who died in 1912 on Captain Robert Scott’s ill-fated British Antarctic expedition, had earlier practised as a doctor in Paddington. The former Senior Street primary school was renamed the Edward Wilson School after him in 1951.[11]: pp.266 

British painter Lucian Freud had his studio in Paddington, first at Delamere Terrace from 1943 to 1962, and then at 124 Clarendon Crescent from 1962 to 1977.[50]

Education[edit]

In popular culture[edit]

Paddington in the 17th century is one of the settings in the fiction-based-on-fact novel A Spurious Brood, which tells the story of Katherine More, whose children were transported to America on board the Pilgrim Fathers’ ship, the Mayflower.

Timothy Forsyte of John Galsworthy’s The Forsyte Saga and other relatives resided in Bayswater Road.[51]

Paddington Bear, from «deepest, darkest Peru», emigrated to England via Paddington station.[52]

The films The Blue Lamp (1950) and Never Let Go (1960) depict many Paddington streets, which suffered bombing in World War II and were subsequently demolished in the early 1960s to make way for the Westway elevated road and the Warwick Estate housing redevelopment.

Paddington is an area in the City of Westminster, in central London, England.[1] A medieval parish then a metropolitan borough, it was integrated with Westminster and Greater London in 1965. Paddington station, designed by the engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel opened in 1847. It is also the site of St Mary’s Hospital and the former Paddington Green Police Station.

Paddington Waterside aims to regenerate former railway and canal land. Districts within Paddington are Maida Vale, Westbourne and Bayswater including Lancaster Gate.

History[edit]

A map showing the wards of Paddington Metropolitan Borough as they appeared in 1916.

The earliest extant references to Padington (or «Padintun», as in the Saxon Chartularies, 959[2]), historically a part of Middlesex, appear in documentation of purported tenth-century land grants to the monks of Westminster by Edgar the Peaceful as confirmed by Archbishop Dunstan. However, the documents’ provenance is much later and likely to have been forged after the 1066 Norman conquest. There is no mention of the place (or Westbourne or Knightsbridge) in the Domesday Book of 1086.[3]

It has been reasonably speculated that a Saxon settlement led by the followers of Padda, an Anglo-Saxon chieftain, was located around the intersection of the northern and western Roman roads, corresponding with the Edgware Road (Watling Street) and the Harrow and Uxbridge Roads.[4][5] From the tenth century, Paddington was owned by Westminster Abbey which was later confirmed by the Plantagenet kings in a charter from 1222. This charter mentions a chapel and a farm situated in the area.[5] While a 12th-century document cited by the cleric Isaac Maddox (1697–1759) establishes that part of the land was held by brothers «Richard and William de Padinton».[6] They and their descendants carried out activities in Paddington; these were known by records dating from 1168 to 1485. They were the earliest known tenant farmers of the land.[5]

During King Henry VIII’s dissolution, the property of Paddington was seized by the crown. However, King Edward VI granted the land to the Bishop of London in 1550. Successive bishops would later lease farmlands to tenants and city merchants. One such, in the 1540s was Thomas North who translated Plutarch’s Parallel Lives into English in 1579. Shakespeare would later use this work and was said to have performed in taverns along Edgware Road.[5]

In the later Elizabethan and early Stuart era, the rectory, manor and associated estate houses were occupied by the Small (or Smale) family. Nicholas Small was a clothworker who was sufficiently well connected to have Holbein paint a portrait of his wife, Jane Small. Nicholas died in 1565 and his wife married again, to Nicholas Parkinson of Paddington who became master of the Clothworkers’ Company. Jane Small continued to live in Paddington after her second husband’s death, and her manor house was big enough to have been let to Sir John Popham, the attorney general, in the 1580s. They let the building that became in this time Blowers Inn.[7]

Early Modern period[edit]

As the regional population grew in the 17th century, Paddington’s ancient Hundred of Ossulstone was split into divisions; Holborn Division replaced the hundred for most administrative purposes.[8] A church, the predecessor of St Mary was built in Paddington in 1679.[9]

In 1740, John Frederick leased the estate in Paddington and it is from his granddaughters and their families that many of Paddington’s street names are derived.[5] The New Road was built in 1756–7 to link the villages of Paddington and Islington.[10]: 260  By 1773, a contemporary historian felt and wrote that «London may now be said to include two cities (London and Westminster), one borough (Southwark) and forty six antient [ancient] villages [among which]… Paddington and [adjoining] Marybone (Marylebone).»[9]
During the 18th century, several French Huguenots called Paddington village home. These included jewellers, nobility and skilled craftsmen; and men such as Claudius Amyand (surgeon to King George II). The French nobility built magnificent gardens that lasted up until the 19th century.[5]

Roman roads formed the parish’s northeastern and southern boundaries from Marble Arch: Watling Street (later Edgware Road) and; (the) Uxbridge road, known by the 1860s in this neighbourhood as Bayswater Road. They were toll roads in much of the 18th century, before and after the dismantling of the permanent Tyburn gallows «tree» at their junction in 1759 a junction now known as Marble Arch.[11]: p.174  The Tyburn gallows might have been a reason why expansion and urban development (from London) slowed in Paddington; as public execution was taking place there up until 1783.[5]

Paddington station first opened in 1838

Only in 1801 did major construction to Paddington occur. This happened when the bishops leased land to the Grand Junction Canal, where a direct trade link could now take place between London and the Midlands, bringing more employment to the area. The canal would remain dominant until Regent’s Canal was built in 1820. Construction and building projects would take place from east to west and south to north throughout the 19th century; increasing its population in a rapid pace, overtaking the village scene of Paddington. This population increase would go from 1,881 to 46,305 between 1801 and 1851 respectively; with 10,000 new inhabitants added every decade thereafter.[5]

Paddington station first opened in 1838, with the first underground line in 1863 (Metropolitan).[5] Paddington was one of the few districts in London that had a migrant majority population by 1881.[10]: 416  With a thriving Greek and Jewish community present in the mid-19th century. During the period, several Victorian churches were demolished owing to structural decay. Victorian housing developed into slums, giving the area an unsavoury reputation.

However, in the 1930s massive rebuilding and improvements projects were made. However, even as late as the 1950s Paddington was a byword for overcrowding, poverty and vice. Between the 1960s and 1980s, the area would see vast improvements and redevelopments in city planning.[5]

Tyburnia[edit]

The southeast section of Tyburnia used to be a shanty-town in the 1790s before the Canal was built and brought much needed employment to its inhabitants. The area was built up during the course of the Napoleonic Wars.[5]

In the 19th century the part of the parish most sandwiched between Edgware Road and Westbourne Terrace, Gloucester Terrace and Craven Hill, bounded to the south by Bayswater Road, was known as Tyburnia. The district formed the centrepiece of an 1824 masterplan by Samuel Pepys Cockerell to redevelop the Tyburn Estate (historic lands of the Bishop of London) into a residential area to rival Belgravia.[12]

The area was laid out in the mid-1800s when grand squares and cream-stuccoed terraces started to fill the acres between Paddington station and Hyde Park; however, the plans were never realised in full. Despite this, Thackeray described the residential district of Tyburnia as «the elegant, the prosperous, the polite Tyburnia, the most respectable district of the habitable globe.»[13]

Etymology[edit]

Derivation of the name is uncertain. Speculative explanations include Padre-ing-tun (explained as «father’s meadow village»), Pad-ing-tun («pack-horse meadow village»),[14] and Pæding-tun («village of the race of Pæd»)[15] the last being the cited suggestion of the Victorian Anglo-Saxon scholar John Mitchell Kemble.

There is another Paddington in Surrey, recorded in the Domesday Book as «Padendene»[16] and later as «Paddingdon», perhaps to be derived from Old English dene, denu «valley», whereas Paddington in Middlesex is commonly traced back to Old English tūn «farm, homestead, town». Both place names share the same first part, a personal name rendered as Pad(d)a, of uncertain origin, giving «Padda’s valley» for the place in Surrey and «homestead of Padda’s people» for the place in Middlesex.[2] That both place names would refer to the same individual or ancient family,[17] is pure speculation. A lord named Padda is named in the Domesday Book, associated with Brampton, Suffolk.[18]

Colloquial expressions[edit]

An 18th-century dictionary gives «Paddington Fair Day. An execution day, Tyburn being in the parish or neighbourhood of Paddington. To dance the Paddington frisk ; to be hanged.»[19] Public executions were abolished in England in 1868.[20]

Geography[edit]

The Paddington district is centred around Paddington railway station. The conventional recognised boundary of the district is much smaller than the longstanding pre-mid-19th century parish. That parish was virtually equal to the borough abolished in 1965. It is divided from a northern offshoot Maida Vale by the Regent’s Canal; its overlap is the artisan and touristic neighbourhood of Little Venice. In the east of the district around Paddington Green it remains divided from Marylebone by Edgware Road (as commonly heard in spoken form, the Edgware Road). In the south west it is bounded by its south and western offshoot Bayswater. A final offshoot, Westbourne, rises to the north west.

Governance[edit]

An 1834 map of the Parliamentary Borough of St Marylebone, showing Paddington in (green) and St Pancras (yellow). These Parliamentary Boroughs, like the subsequent Metropolitan Boroughs used the ancient parish boundaries.

Paddington was part of the Metropolitan Borough of Paddington, the headquarters of which was at Paddington Town Hall, until 1965 when the area became part of the enlarged City of Westminster.[21]

Landmarks[edit]

Browning’s Pool[edit]

A lagoon created in the 1810s at the convergence of the Paddington Arm of the Grand Union Canal, the Regent’s Canal and the Paddington Basin. It is an important focal point of the Little Venice area. It is reputedly named after Robert Browning, the poet. More recently known as the «Little Venice Lagoon» it contains a small islet known as Browning’s Island. Although Browning was thought to have coined the name «Little Venice» for this spot there are strong arguments Lord Byron was responsible.[22]

London Paddington Station[edit]

Paddington station is the iconic landmark associated with the area. In the station are statues of its designer, Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and the children’s fiction character Paddington Bear.

Paddington Basin[edit]

The terminus of the Paddington Arm of the Grand Union Canal was originally known as the Paddington Basin and all the land to the south was developed into housing and commercial property and titled The Grand Junction Estate. The majority of the housing was bounded by Praed Street, Sussex Gardens, Edgware Road and Norfolk Place. Land and buildings not used for the canal undertaking remained after 1929 with the renamed Grand Junction Company, which functioned as a property company. While retaining its own name, it was taken over in 1972 by the Amalgamated Investment and Property Company, which went into liquidation in 1976. Prior to the liquidation the Welbeck Estate Securities Group acquired the entire estate comprising 525 houses 15 shops and the Royal Exchange public House in Sale Place.

The surrounding area is now known as Merchant Square. A former transshipment facility, the surrounds of the canal basin named Merchant Square have been redeveloped to provide 2,000,000 sq ft (190,000 m2) of offices, homes, shops and leisure facilities.[23] The redeveloped basin has some innovative features including Heatherwicks Rolling Bridge, the Merchant Square Fan Bridge and the Floating Pocket Park.[24]

Paddington Central[edit]

Situated to the north of the railway as it enters Paddington station, and to the south of the Westway flyover and with the canal to the east the former railway goods yard has been developed into a modern complex with wellbeing, leisure, retail and leisure facilities.[25] The public area from the canal to Sheldon Square with the amphitheatre hosts leisure facilities and special events.[26]

Paddington Green[edit]

A green space and conservation area in the east of the Paddington district immediately to the north of the Westway and west of Edgware Road. It includes St Mary on Paddington Green Church. The Paddington Green campus of the City of Westminster College is adjacent to the Green. Paddington Green Police Station is immediately to the north west of the intersection of Westway and Edgware Road.

Transport[edit]

Rail[edit]

Paddington station is on the London Underground and National Rail networks. It is in London fare zone 1.[27]

National Rail[edit]

National Rail services from Paddington run towards Slough, Maidenhead and Reading. Services calling at stations along this route are operated by TfL Rail (future: Elizabeth line) and Great Western Railway. TfL Rail services link the area to destinations in West London and Berkshire. Great Western Railway services continue towards destinations in South West England and South Wales, including Oxford, Worcester, Bristol, Cardiff, Exeter, Plymouth and Penzance.[28]

Trains to Heathrow Airport also depart from Paddington, operated by TfL Rail (stopping services via Ealing Broadway). The Heathrow Express also runs between Paddinton and Heathrow, with no intermediate stops.[27][28]

London Underground[edit]

There are two London Underground (tube) stations in the Paddington station complex.

The Bakerloo, Circle and District lines call at the station on Praed Street (which, from the main concourse, is opposite platform 3). This links Paddington directly to destinations across Central and West London, including Baker Street, Earl’s Court, Oxford Circus, South Kensington, Victoria, Waterloo, Westminster and Wimbledon.[27]

The Circle and Hammersmith & City lines call at the station near the Paddington Basin (to the north of platform 12). Trains from this station link the area directly to Hammersmith via Shepherd’s Bush to the west. Eastbound trains pass through Baker Street, King’s Cross St Pancras, Liverpool Street in the City, Whitechapel and Barking.[27]

Lancaster Gate tube station is also in the area, served by Central line trains.[27]

Heritage[edit]

Paddington station was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. The permanent building opened in 1854.

Paddington Bear was also named after the station; in Michael Bond’s 1958 book A Bear Called Paddington, Paddington is found at the station by the Brown family. He is lost, having just arrived in London from «darkest Peru.»

Buses[edit]

London Buses 7, 23, 27, 36, 46, 205 and 332, and night buses N7 and N205 serve Paddington station. Buses 23, 27 and 36 operate 24 hours, daily.[29]

Routes 94 and 148 serve Lancaster Gate station to the south of Paddington. Both routes operate 24 hours, daily, supplemented by route N207 at nights.[30]

Road[edit]

Several key routes pass through or around the Paddington area, including:

  • A40 (Westway/Marylebone Flyover) – westbound towards White City, Acton and the M40 motorway (towards Oxford and Birmingham).
  • A402 (Bayswater Road) – eastbound towards Marble Arch, Oxford Circus and Holborn (via A40/Oxford Street), and Park Lane. Westbound towards Notting Hill, Shepherd’s Bush and Chiswick.
  • A404 (Harrow Road) – northeast towards Kensal Green, Wembley and Harrow.
  • A4205 (Praed Street/Westbourne Terrace)
  • A4206 (Bishop’s Bridge Road) – southwest towards Notting Hill.
  • A4209 (Sussex Gardens)
  • A5 (Edgware Road) – southbound to Marble Arch and Park Lane. Northbound to Kilburn, Hendon, the M1 motorway and Edgware. Forms part of the London Inner Ring Road.
  • A501 (Marylebone Flyover/Marylebone Road) – eastbound towards Regent’s Park, King’s Cross and the City. Forms part of the London Inner Ring Road.

Cycling[edit]

Cycling infrastructure is provided in Paddington by Transport for London (TfL) and the Canal & River Trust.

Several cycle routes pass through the area, including:

  • Cycle Superhighway 3 (CS3) – part of the «East–West Superhighway,» CS3 begins just south of Paddington at Lancaster Gate and carries cyclists southbound through Hyde Park to South Kensington. The route continues eastbound, passing Hyde Park Corner, Embankment, Blackfriars, Tower Hill and Canary Wharf en route to Barking in the East End. The route runs predominantly on traffic-free cycle track. The route is also unbroken and signposted.[31]
  • Quietway 2 (Q2) – runs on traffic-free paths or residential streets. Westbound, the route runs unbroken and signposted to Bayswater and Ladbroke Grove en route to East Acton. Eastbound, the route is incomplete, but will run unbroken to Bloomsbury via Marylebone and Fitzrovia. As the route runs on traffic-free or low-traffic routes, it is indirect.[32]
  • Grand Union Canal towpath – a shared-use path running direct to Little Venice, Westbourne Park and Willesden, and eventually Hayes. The route is managed by the Canal & River Trust.[33]
  • Regent’s Canal towpath – runs alongside the Regent’s Canal on residential streets from Little Venice to Lisson Grove. The route then joins the towpath, heading eastbound which provides Paddington with a direct connection to Regent’s Park, Camden Town and King’s Cross. The route is managed by the Canal & River Trust.

Sustrans also propose that National Cycle Route 6 (NCR 6) will begin at Paddington and run northwest along the Grand Union Canal towpath. The route, when complete, will run signposted and unbroken to Keswick, Cumbria. Within the M25, the route will pass through Hayes, Uxbridge and Watford.[34]

Santander Cycles, a London-wide bike sharing system, operates in Paddington, with several docking stations in the area.[35]

Canal[edit]

The Rolling Bridge at Paddington is lifted. It is in an unusual curved shape, with one end lifted into the air.

The Paddington Arm of the Grand Union Canal runs from Paddington to Hayes, via Westbourne Park and Willesden. Beyond Hayes, onward destinations include Slough, the Colne Valley, and Aylesbury. The Paddington Basin is in the area, as is Little Venice. A towpath runs unbroken from Paddington to Hayes.[36]

The Rolling Bridge at the Paddington Basin was designed by Thomas Heatherwick, who wanted to create a bridge that, instead of breaking apart to let boats through, would «get out of the way» instead. Heatherwick’s website cites the «fluid, coiling tails of the animatronic dinosaurs of Jurassic Park» as the initial influence behind the Bridge.[37]

The Regent’s Canal begins at Little Venice, heading east towards Maida Vale, Regent’s Park, Camden Town, King’s Cross, Old Street and Mile End en route to Limehouse. A towpath runs along the canal from Paddington to Limehouse, broken only by the Maida Hill and Islington tunnels.[38]

Development[edit]

Commercial traffic on the Grand Junction Canal (which became the Grand Union Canal in 1929) dwindled because of railway competition in the late-19th and early-20th centuries, and freight then moved from rail to road after World War II, leading to the abandonment of the goods yards in the early 1980s. The land lay derelict until the Paddington Waterside Partnership was established in 1998 to co-ordinate the regeneration of the area between the Westway, Praed Street and Westbourne Terrace. This includes major developments on the goods yard site (now branded Paddington Central) and around the canal (Paddington Basin). As of October 2017 much of these developments have been completed and are in use.[39]

Renewal proposal, 2018–2023[edit]

PaddingtonNow BID put forward a renewal bid in 2017 covering the period April 2018 to March 2023, which would be supported by a levy on local businesses. Development schemes for St. Mary’s Hospital and Paddington Square are likely to commence in this period, and the impact of the opening of the Elizabeth line in 2018 would be soon felt.[39]

Religion[edit]

Paddington has a number of Anglican churches, including St James’s, St Mary Magdalene,St David’s Welsh Church and St Peter’s. In addition, there is a large Muslim population in and around Paddington.

Notable residents[edit]

Between 1805 and 1817, the great actress Sarah Siddons lived at Desborough House,[42] (which was demolished before 1853 to make way for the Great Western Railway) and was buried at Paddington Green, near the later graves of the eminent painters Benjamin Haydon and William Collins.[43]: p.183  Her brother Charles Kemble also built a house, Desborough Lodge, in the vicinity—in which she may have lived later.[11]: p.230  In later years, the actress Yootha Joyce, best known for her part in the classic television comedy George and Mildred, lived at 198 Sussex Gardens.[44]

One of Napoleon’s nephews, Prince Louis Lucien Bonaparte (1813–1891), a notable comparative linguist and dialectologist, who spent most of his adult life in England, had a house in Norfolk Terrace, Westbourne Park.[11]: p.200 

The eccentric philanthropist Ann Thwaytes lived at 17 Hyde Park Gardens between 1840 and 1866.[45][46]

The Victorian poet Robert Browning moved from No. 1 Chichester Road to Beauchamp Lodge, 19 Warwick Crescent, in 1862 and lived there until 1887.[11]: pp.199  He is reputed to have named that locality, on the junction of two canals, «Little Venice». But this has been disputed by Lord Kinross in 1966[47][22] and more recently by londoncanals.uk[48] who both assert that Lord Byron humorously coined the name. The name is now applied, more loosely, to a longer reach of the canal system.

St Mary’s Hospital in Praed Street is the site of several notable medical accomplishments. In 1874, C. R. Alder Wright synthesised heroin (diacetylmorphine). Also there, in 1928, Sir Alexander Fleming first isolated penicillin, earning the award of a Nobel Prize. The hospital has an Alexander Fleming Laboratory Museum[49] where visitors can see Fleming’s laboratory, restored to its 1928 condition, and explore the story of Fleming and the discovery and development of penicillin through displays and video.

Edward Wilson, physician, naturalist and ornithologist, who died in 1912 on Captain Robert Scott’s ill-fated British Antarctic expedition, had earlier practised as a doctor in Paddington. The former Senior Street primary school was renamed the Edward Wilson School after him in 1951.[11]: pp.266 

British painter Lucian Freud had his studio in Paddington, first at Delamere Terrace from 1943 to 1962, and then at 124 Clarendon Crescent from 1962 to 1977.[50]

Education[edit]

In popular culture[edit]

Paddington in the 17th century is one of the settings in the fiction-based-on-fact novel A Spurious Brood, which tells the story of Katherine More, whose children were transported to America on board the Pilgrim Fathers’ ship, the Mayflower.

Timothy Forsyte of John Galsworthy’s The Forsyte Saga and other relatives resided in Bayswater Road.[51]

Paddington Bear, from «deepest, darkest Peru», emigrated to England via Paddington station.[52]

The films The Blue Lamp (1950) and Never Let Go (1960) depict many Paddington streets, which suffered bombing in World War II and were subsequently demolished in the early 1960s to make way for the Westway elevated road and the Warwick Estate housing redevelopment.

  • Значение имени Паддингтон в нумерологии

    Нумерология имени Паддингтон может подсказать не только главные качества и характер человека. Но и определить его судьбу, показать успех в личной жизни, дать сведения о карьере, расшифровать судьбоносные знаки и даже предсказать будущее. Число имени Паддингтон в нумерологии — 9. Девиз имени Паддингтон и девяток по жизни: «Художника может обидеть каждый!»

    • Планета-покровитель для имени Паддингтон — Марс.

    «Девятка» в качестве одного из чисел нумерологического ядра – это идеализм, возведенный в статус основного жизненного принципа.
    «Девятка» в числах имени Паддингтон – Числе Выражения, Числе Души и Числе внешнего облика – говорит о том, что человек обладает редчайшим даром – способностью прощать. Это обеспечивает любовь окружающих, а главное – покой в душе. И это – единственный способ его обрести. Впрочем, цифра 9 в нумерологии означает и более практическую способность – творческий талант. Правда, довольно избирательный. Скажем, создать новое средство уничтожения ближних человек сумеет. А вот разработать подробнейший план построения идеального общества сможет без труда. У него будет только один недостаток – абсолютная невыполнимость. Девятки ленивы, у них много желаний и катастрофически мало энергии для их реализации. Поэтому они продолжают мечтать о чем-то и ничего для этого не делать годами. Надеясь, что все сбудется само собой, эти люди просто плывут по течению. При этом девятки отличаются душевной добротой и мягкостью.
    Девятка обладает потрясающей интуицией и связью с энергией Вселенной. Это прекрасные диагносты. Для Девятки с именем Паддингтон важно материальное благополучие. Весьма критична к себе, подозрительна к окружающим. С Девяткой трудно сблизиться по-настоящему, всегда будет держать на расстоянии, пока друг не пройдет тщательную проверку временем. Не любит проигрывать. С трудом переносит разлуку или расставание, поэтому избегает близости. Обладает ярким темпераментом, интуицией, прекрасным чувством юмора. Часто настолько боится будущего, что упускает удачные шансы в настоящем. Страхи — главный враг для числа Девять. Девятка — настоящий воин, способный выстоять пред лицом любых испытаний и выйти победителем в трудных ситуациях. Девятка слишком строго относится к себе. Порадовать Девятку можно пониманием, но никогда не стоит ее жалеть, Девятка не выносит жалости к себе.

    • Влияние имени Паддингтон на профессию. Значение цифры 9 в выборе специальности толкуется, как отсутствие возможностей для самореализации на профессиональном поприще. Человеку с этим типом личности гораздо больше подойдет хобби, любимое занятие, приносящее материальные доходы. А это может быть все, что угодно, начиная с писательства, живописи или любого прикладного искусства, и заканчивая выращиванием овощей и цветов на продажу. Реализация: все творческие профессии.
    • Влияние имени Паддингтон на личную жизнь. «Девятка» оказывает на личную жизнь однозначно положительное влияние. Прямо скажем: – не тот человек, который способен существовать в одиночестве, что значит, число 9 побуждает к союзам любого типа. Это нельзя назвать стремлением к зависимому положению. Просто нужен кто-то, на кого можно излить свою любовь и нежность. Девятки тоже любят гармонию, щедры по отношению к другим и впечатлительны. Им не подходят слабые и пассивные партнеры. Людям с именем Паддингтон и числом 9 нужен человек, который сможет разделить их взгляды, среди таких тройки, семерки, восьмерки и девятки (в этом случае две половинки станут идеальными советчиками друг другу).

    Планета покровитель имени Паддингтон

    Число 9 для имени Паддингтон значит планету Марс. Как и планета-покровитель, люди этой планеты готовы завоевать для себя все своими силами. Если Марсы встречают какие-либо возражения или сопротивление со стороны, то ни за что не примут их во внимание, скорее, напротив, это еще более ожесточит их в борьбе. Обладатели имени Паддингтон начнут сопротивляться этим препятствиям с удвоенной энергией. Люди Марса мужественны и обладают железной волей, но часто случается так, что их импульсивность, привычка действовать с ходу, не взвесив свои силы, губит все дело. Кроме того, они весьма самолюбивы, что ведет к возникновению проблем в семейной жизни вообще и в отношениях с партнерами, в частности. Обладая прекрасными организаторскими способностями, Марсы не выносят подчиненного положения. Носители имени Паддингтон — лидеры по своей натуре. Они предприимчивы, инициативны, активны и энергичны.

    Знаки зодиака имени Паддингтон

    Для имени Паддингтон подходят следующие знаки зодиака:

  • Знак зодиака Скорпион для имени Паддингтон. Скорпионы по имени Паддингтон любят жить, как говорится, на полную катушку, крайне азартны, склонны к зависимостям, категоричны. Людям с именем Паддингтон чаще не доверяют и создают трагедию на пустом месте. Врожденная интуиция Скорпиона, сделала носителей имени Паддингтон отличными психологами и прирожденными манипуляторами. Владельцы имени Паддингтон жить не могут без любви и ярких эмоций, так что как только расстаются с одним партнером, тут же находят другого и тащат его на американские горки – рестораны и кино для слабаков. При этом Скорпионы Паддингтон себя просто обожают, умеют считать деньги и помнят, на что был потрачен каждый рубль их зарплаты. Скрытные до невозможности: о себе начнут рассказывать через три года после свадьбы, не раньше. Болтать не любят, чаще молчат, чем и притягивают к себе внимание. Рядом с Овнами их надолго оставлять нельзя – вместе они придумают таких приключений на свои пятые точки, что разгребать придется всем.
  • Знак зодиака Рак для имени Паддингтон. Рак по имени Паддингтон переплюнул все знаки зодиака по чувственности и восприимчивости. Представитель имени Паддингтон и водной стихии находится под покровительством планеты тайн, сомнений и переживаний — Луны. Не дай бог обидеть Рака, обладателя имени Паддингтон. Серьезно. Скажут, что простили, а на самом деле еще 50 лет будут помнить и при каждом удобном случае воткнут в тебя шпильку: «А вот помнишь, ты у меня во втором классе отжала ластик». Брезгливы до невозможности: даже крошка на столе приводит их в бешенство. Носители имени Паддингтон обожают идеальную (читай – клиническую) чистоту и пытаются все свое окружение втянуть в эту религию. Отговорки «это творческий беспорядок» Раков не устраивают – они наведут красоту в любом случае, и даже разрешения не спросят.
  • Знак зодиака Рыбы для имени Паддингтон. Рыбы Паддингтон мечтательны. В своих фантазиях Рыба с именем Паддингтон уже давно завоевала мир, предотвратила глобальное потепление и искоренила голод на планете, а вот в реальной жизни им неинтересно – все скучно, пресно и вообще недостойно их королевского внимания. Страшные вруны носители имени Паддингтон, причем поймать Рыб на лжи почти невозможно. Угрызений совести у них нет, так что раскаиваться и сознаваться Рыбы по имени Паддингтон не собираются. И им веришь, глядя в их большие и честные глаза. Обижать Рыб нельзя – страдать будут долго, муторно и с наслаждением. Если в жизни все идет хорошо, у Рыб Паддингтон начинаются маниакальные мысли о грядущем кошмаре, потому что идеально быть не может. В быту владельцы имени Паддингтон неприхотливы, уравновешены, умеют скрывать чувства и часто манипулируют другими людьми. Тщеславие и меркантильность не присущи водному знаку, они умеют работать, но не рвутся к славе.
  • Цвет имени Паддингтон

    Золотой цвет имени Паддингтон. Люди с именем Паддингтон, носящие золотой цвет, упертые и непоколебимые, они нетерпимы к недостаткам других, так как сами считают себя идеальными. В принципе, внешне к носителям имени Паддингтон невозможно придраться – тщательно подобранный гардероб и ухоженная внешность. Но, если заглянуть под золотую оболочку людей с именем Паддингтон, то можно увидеть властного и бесчувственного человека. Их часто не любят на работе, так как они жёсткие и властные, да и дома они диктаторы. Положительные черты характера для имени Паддингтон – стойкость духа и непоколебимость. Отрицательные черты характера имени Паддингтон – властность и жёсткость.
