Notting Hill is one of the most sought after locations in London. But its progress from 'ghetto' to gentrification spans a time when it was one of the most turbulent places in Britain. Plagued by racial tensions, unsolved killings, drugs, prostitution, no-go areas and riots, it was populated by some intriguing and challenging characters as well as being the venue for an iconic, sometimes disorderly, annual Carnival.

Abstract

On 13 August 1977, the National Front intended to hold a march from New Cross to Lewisham in south London. This was designed to highlight the issue of mugging, which demonstrators wished to project as a crime committed by black people (Clutterbuck, 1980: 227). This event was inspired by the police arrest of a number of black youths in south London on 30 May 1977 for this offence, which led to the formation of a defence committee for the 'Lewisham 18' (later becoming the 'Lewisham 21'). It was alleged that this defence committee was inspired by the Socialist Workers' Party (Clutterbuck, 1980: 227), although individuals not associated with this organisation were also involved. On 2 July 1977, this group organised a demonstration in New Cross, which met with violent opposition from National Front supporters and around 80 arrests were made (Brain, 2010: 37).
