In this video Joolz discovers the history and businesses around Queens Park, Kensal Rise and Kensal Green, a leafy suburb of northwest London.
Queens Park is a surburb which has existed since the 19th century before which is was mostly farmland.
Nowadays it is home to many celebrities like Dua Lipa and Jeremy Paxman. There is the wonderful cemetery containing the remains of many great Victorians like Brunel and Babbage and looks more like a film set that a graveyard!
Award-winning pies and Crystals with healing properties. See also where Queens Park Rangers Football Club was established and how a scarecrow built half of the houses in Queens Park!
