This is a view up Bristol Gardens towards the Clifton Garden Centre (the white awning on the right at the top of the street). It is taken from the corner of Shirland Road and Formosa Street (and Bristol Gardens and Blomfield Road, as it's a roundabout with four differently named streets leading off it).text/html2008-09-14T21:23:24+00:00https://www.geograph.ie/profile/29384John Andrew51.523304 -0.184214TQ2682 : Warwick Avenue underground station

"Little Venice" is the join between the Regent's Canal, the Grand Union Canal and the branch to Paddington Basin.
It is now a popular tourist spot with cafés and galleries on the canal boats moored in the basin and holds a major waterways festival on Spring Bank Holiday every year.text/html2008-09-14T21:10:34+00:00https://www.geograph.ie/profile/29384John Andrew51.522775 -0.190722TQ2581 : Regent's Canal alongside Maida Avenue

https://www.geograph.ie/photo/962914
While most of the buildings in the Maida Vale and Maida Hill areas of London were built as flats (known locally as "mansion blocks"), some terraces were built with whole houses. Since then most of these have now been converted into flats.text/html2008-09-14T21:00:32+00:00https://www.geograph.ie/profile/29384John Andrew51.524833 -0.190063TQ2582 : Public Library on Sutherland Avenue
https://www.geograph.ie/photo/962911
The Maida Vale Public Library is on the corner of Sutherland Avenue and Shirland Road.
It has recently been modernised inside, but before this modernisation it held the criminology department of the British Library on the first floor (around the current balcony area).
One other odd fact about it is that it doubled as the police station in the 1980s ITV series, Minder, improvised by simply placing a "Police" sign on the gatepost.text/html2008-09-14T20:53:55+00:00https://www.geograph.ie/profile/29384John Andrew51.522129 -0.183828TQ2681 : Public house on Warwick Place

https://www.geograph.ie/photo/962896
This is one of the most original public houses in Maida Vale, having all its snug bars still intact.
It was modernised a little recently and the old stable area was turned into a dining room but most of the pub is in its original condition.text/html2008-09-14T20:44:43+00:00https://www.geograph.ie/profile/29384John Andrew51.524523 -0.187481TQ2582 : Mews Street in Maida Vale

It is currently trading under the name "The Waterway", but traded for many years as "The Paddington Stop".
