Many of the posts on this blog are related to the history of North Kensington, and many of our readers live in the area. As a mark of respect for all those affected by the devastating fire at Grenfell Tower on Wednesday morning there will be no post this week.
Our thoughts and sympathies go out to residents, their families, friends and neighbours.

RIP those poor souls and our prayers are with all those affected.
It would be nice to see some photos from a happier period of Grenfell Tower or Lancaster West’s history or construction, if available and the team at Local Studies thought this was appropriate in the future.

I would like to know, Just how a fridge could catch fire? why the chap did not try to put it out, Rather than walk away. How come its Mrs Mays fault? Also why is he the man who started the fire not in the limelight?

There are many lessons to be learnt from this tragedy. Sadly, history often repeats itself. And, history is not a favoured subject during this age of selfishness, overconfidence, arrogance, and compacency.
