About Kentish Town
Kentish Town is a village. Location: Camden, Greater London. Elevation: 40 m.
Kentish Town is an area in the London Borough of Camden, immediately north of Camden Town, close to Hampstead Heath. The area was initially a small settlement on the River Fleet, first recorded in 1207 during King John's reign. The early 19th century brought modernization to the area, and it became a popular resort due to its accessibility from London. Karl Marx lived in Kentish Town from 1855 until his death in 1883.
