NOTTING HILL.   Although markets have sprung up in the area for centuries, they've only taken true organized form since the mid-20th century. This is also when antiques dealers started gathering here. Their presence is why many folks come to Portobello, scoping out goods in a broad range of prices and time periods. The antiques market is held on Saturdays, when you'll also find an abundant array of fashion; the surrounding shops and restaurants are open Monday-Saturday, and vendors congregate to sell everything from produce to clothing. The area's dwindling multicultural population adds a bit of diversity to the available merchandise. TUBE: Notting Hill Gate or Ladbroke Grove   (© 10Best)
