Kilburn is an old village which straddled the Roman road called Watling Street. West Hampstead existed as the tiny village of West End until the 19th century but, because of the terrain, it was remote from the centre of Hampstead. Construction of Finchley Road encouraged development despite the building of railway routes which carved up the area.
