More about this scene

This view looks north up Portobello market in Notting Hill's Portobello Road. To the left is Elgin Crescent, and on the right is Colville Terrace. A milkman pushes his cart at some speed past the post office on the corner. The pub on the opposite corner survives today as the Duke of Wellington.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

In 1881 at 336 Portabello Road single woman Mary Dowsett aged 46 was greengrocer and had her neice Elizabeth Poulter living with her. She may have had a stall in the market as it mainly sold fresh-food in the 19th century? I think the present market resides in the district of Notting Hill.
