High Street Kensington Escorts

Kensington High Street is the main shopping focus for the Kensington area, with a history of providing an incredible retail experience to its visitors. From the late 19th century it boasted three major department stores, Barkers, Derry & Toms and Pontings. These stores eventually merged under the banner of Barkers with the buyout of Pontings in 1906 and Derry & Toms in 1920. Although work on the three stores was delayed by the Second World War, by 1958 the two main buildings, Barkers and Derry & Toms were prized as Art Deco palaces, attracting the highest level of clientèle. Derry & Toms was crowned with Europe's largest roof garden and was said to serve the best tea in Kensington. Now owned and maintained by Richard Branson's Virgin, it is known as the Kensington Roof Gardens and is very popular with escorts in London.

As one of western London's most popular shopping areas, Kensington High Street is served by two Tube stations and an overground station, allowing thousands of shoppers easy access to the area each day. Recent works on the road layouts to create the concept of shared space, popular in European cities, has removed much of the railings and pedestrian crossings, allowing easier movement on the street and leading to a 44% reduction in accidents over two years.

High Street Kensington escorts love it for its well known stores along with exclusive small businesses and the popular Kensington Market, as well as the high end fashion of Barkers Arcade. Identified in the London Plan as one of 35 major centres in London, Kensington High Street offers shoppers a truly unique experience owing to its historical buildings, high end retailers and relaxed atmosphere. When it's time for a rest, there are plenty of excellent bars and restaurants in which to sit down for a while with some great food and drink.
