New shop?

Not a lot going on. There's a planning application for 103 Chamberlayne Road,which was that fostering agency. No details, so I'm not sure what it is?

Harvist to reopen...

Thanks to the comments box, it looks like Harvist is to reopen, with an Italian theme. Sounds good as Olive Branch never really got going and its a major thing lacking in Kensal Rise.

Quick update

A reader kindly says there is some activity at Harvist, so perhaps it is going to reopen? I'd kinda given up.

Also I saw over someone shoulder a big feature on Kensal Rise in one of the London free papers - but annoying I can't find it online anywhere.

ArtNW10

This weekend (1/2 October) is ArtNW10, formerly NW London Art Trail, an open studios event at various locations along and near Harrow Road.

Kensal Rise Residents' Association

Unfortunately I won't be able to make it, but if anyone else fancies popping along let us know what was discussed in the comments:

Kensal Rise Residents Association
1st meeting 7PM Wed 14/9/11
- email for details rik.smith.uk(at)gmail.com

More frequent updates

We went to Queen's Park Day, which was as fun as ever and lucky with the weather until the end (apparently it was almost called off earlier in the week).

I bumped into a number of readers of this site who were too kind to criticise the lack of posts but I feel guilty so will try harder.

Sadly not a lot to say. There's a new health centre of sorts on Wrentham Avenue, I've not tried the Caribbean restaurant on Station Parade so can't comment on that. Anything else going on?

Shop fronts

Not entirely sure why someone would think these were their favourite shop fronts but here's a record of 2011 Kensal Rise (well Brent and other parts but Kensal Rise is quite prominenhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gift)
