Location of the Camden area in London

Camden is an inner northern district of London. Its heart lies in Camden Town, a neighbourhood known for its market and the colourful nightlife. Camden is home to three of the most important railway stations in London: King's Cross, St. Pancras and Euston.

Understand

[edit]
Camden Town - whacky, Bohemian and lots of fun

For half a century Camden Town, the centre of Camden, has been the hub of alternative culture in London, be it punk, goth, hippie or emo. The area is home to large markets selling an extremely wide range of products from glowing t-shirts to didgeridoos, mostly from independent stalls. With some of the capital's most varied cuisine, great live music and an anything goes attitude, Camden is one of the most vibrant and interesting of all London districts.

The area has its origins in the early 19th century as a suburban town on the road leading north from London. Later, it developed as a service centre around the railways, canals and other transportation. Virtually the whole of Camden was traditionally a working-class, inner-city area with large estates of run-down public housing and some very seedy areas indeed. Inevitably though given its convenient inner London location, considerable gentrification has occurred across the district. Nevertheless, a friendly community atmosphere remains in the area which has bred such different people as singer Amy Winehouse and Labour politician Ed Miliband.

Orientation

[edit]

The district of Camden, as covered here, is larger than Camden Town and smaller than the London Borough of Camden. This is for the sake of usefulness: the former is a rather small historic area and the latter simply an administrative unit, but don't be surprised by seeing contradictory uses of the term "Camden". As the term is used here, the Camden district roughly corresponds with the northern half of the Metropolitan Borough of St. Pancras, which existed until 1965.

Three of the main London railway stations are located in the south of the district. They are all along Euston Road, which is a part of the ring road around inner London. King's Cross and St. Pancras International are just across the street from each other (they're served by a single tube station), and slightly further to the west is Euston. A number of important main roads also converge in or around Camden.

For the traveller, it may be useful to divide the district of Camden into four areas. In the centre is Camden Town, with Camden High Street and Chalk Farm Road as its main thoroughfare. The Northern Line underground runs through this area and it's where most locations of interest are to be found. To the southwest of Camden Town is Euston, with its eponymous railway station but little else apart from office blocks and council housing. To the southeast is an area known as King's Cross, which contains the King's Cross and St. Pancras International railway stations. The King's Cross area used to be known for prostitution, drugs and crime, but today most of the area is being redeveloped and has become a lot more up-market. Finally, northeast of Camden Town is Kentish Town, linked to the rest of Camden by Kentish Town Road which branches out from Camden High Street. This is an interesting area, in some ways Camden Town's smaller sibling, it's quieter than its neighbour to the south but has many of the same characteristics.

Get in

[edit]

By tube

[edit]
Camden Town tube station

The district is served by the following tube stations in fare zones 1 and 2, all are served by the Northern line:

Mornington Crescent and Camden Town stations are situated at either end of Camden High Street, whilst Chalk Farm is also near the Roundhouse and Camden Market. During busy periods (such as at weekends) Camden Town can be very crowded, and is an exit-only station on Sundays 1PM-5:30PM. Use Mornington Crescent or Chalk Farm for departures.

The Northern, Piccadilly and Victoria lines are part of the "Night Tube," with trains running overnight on Fridays and Saturdays.

By bus

[edit]

Getting to Camden by bus is easy from almost anywhere in North or Inner London, with major bus stops near:

  • King's Cross station
  • Euston station
  • Camden High Street and Chalk Farm
  • Kentish Town

At night, routes N5 and N20 roughly follow the same route as the Northern line, and can be used as an alternative to the London Underground when the service is closed.

By Overground

[edit]

Camden is connected to the London Overground by two stations on the Mildmay line  MLD  (North London Line) from Richmond to Stratford and one on the Lioness line  LIO  (Watford DC Line) from London Euston to Watford Junction.

This is most useful if arriving in Camden from either East or West London, as most other options from those areas require going into the centre and then back out to Camden.

By rail

[edit]

Camden is served by three major train stations: Euston, St. Pancras International and King's Cross. All three train stations can be reached directly by the London Underground's Northern and Victoria lines.

London Euston

[edit]

3 Euston (EUS, QQU  IATA) (Camden Town is within walking distance. There is a London Underground connection to Camden Town, using the Northern line ( NOR ). Alternatively, use bus routes 168 or 253 from bus stop "A".). Can be reached directly from destinations such as Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool and Glasgow. Euston first opened in 1837, but was rebuilt in a modern style in the early 1960s and is architecturally less impressive than the surrounding train stations.

Euston is served by:

London St. Pancras International

[edit]

4 St. Pancras International (STP, SPX, QQS  IATA). A short bus or tube ride from Camden Town, which is two stops away on the Northern line ( NOR ). Alternatively, use bus routes 46 or 214 from the bus stop "T". St Pancras railway station (Q720102) on Wikidata St Pancras railway station on Wikipedia

St. Pancras International is served by:

London King's Cross

[edit]

5 King’s Cross (KGX, QQK  IATA) (A short bus or tube ride from Camden Town, which is two stops away on the Northern line ( NOR ). Alternatively, use bus routes 46 or 214 from the bus stop "T"). King's Cross station serves northeastern England and Scotland. In popular culture, it is best known as the train station Harry Potter and his classmates used to board the Hogwarts Express from Platform 9¾; every year on the 1st of September there is an announcement for the non-existent service to Hogsmeade. London King's Cross railway station (Q219867) on Wikidata London King's Cross railway station on Wikipedia

There are also trains to Doncaster, Leeds, Bradford, Middlesbrough, Sunderland, Glasgow, Aberdeen and Inverness.

Other stations

[edit]

There is also a station at Kentish Town served by Thameslink trains from Luton Airport , destinations in Central London, South London and Hertfordshire.

By bicycle

[edit]

Getting to Camden Town by bike is easy.

  • From the Southbank, Blackfriars or Bloomsbury, cyclists can follow the predominantly traffic-free Cycleway 6. The route is signposted towards Camden Town and Kentish Town, with both destinations approximately 20 minutes' cycle from Bloomsbury.
  • From King's Cross, the Regent's Canal Towpath is a traffic-free cycle route to the Kentish Town and Camden Locks. The path is shared with pedestrians, so from King's Cross, it takes about 10 minutes to cycle to Camden Market.
  • From Maida Vale and Primrose Hill, the Regent's Canal Towpath runs traffic-free to the Camden and Kentish Town Locks. The path is shared with pedestrians, but from Primrose Hill, it only takes around 5 minutes to cycle to Camden Market.

Bicycle parking can be found on Parkway (opp. Caffè Nero) and Camden Road (outside the World's End pub).

Cycle Hire

[edit]

Santander Cycles can be used in the Camden Town area. You can dock your bike at several locations, including at:

  • Camden Road station
  • Hawley Crescent (opp. Camden Market)
  • Greenland Road (opp. Camden Town station)
  • Harrington Square (opp. Mornington Crescent station)

There are no docking stations in Kentish Town, but other bike-sharing schemes extend across the whole district, including Jump and Lime.

Additionally there are temporary exhibitions on historical or literary subjects, which charge admission. Popular ones can be very crowded at weekends. In the central atrium stands the King's Library (the library of King George III) surrounded by a glass wall, so visitors can occasionally see librarians retrieving books for readers.

The canal winds its way from the Grand Union Canal near Paddington in West London, past Regent's Park, Camden, Islington and Mile End to Limehouse, where it meets the Thames. From Camden Lock you can walk upstream along the canal to Regent's Park and on to London Zoo. It is a great way to approach the Zoo and a good way to avoid the traffic. Downstream of Camden is less pretty but still an interesting walk, taking you through the Islington Tunnel (one of the longest tunnels in the British canal system) and out in to East London.

Markets galore at Camden Town

Camden Town markets

[edit]

The markets in Camden Town are why most people come to Camden. Several markets are packed into the area between Camden Town and Chalk Farm tube stations, and in the weekend it can be difficult to distinguish one from another. With increased tourism, the markets have become more commercial and less unique than they once were. However it is still possible to find some great things to buy - clothes, art, books, records - simply by persisting through the most commercial bits and going on through to the more interesting parts deeper inside the markets.

  • 1 The Lock Market (by Camden Lock). Sa Su 9AM-6PM. Many stores mainly focused around music and clothing. This is the market most people mean when they talk about the "Camden Market".
  • 2 The Stables Market (next to the railway bridge across Chalk Farm Road, just past the Lock Market). Some shops open all week, but most stalls only Sa Su 9AM-6PM. This is the largest of Camden's market areas, featuring hundreds of stalls selling everything from African art to beds to fetish clothing to antiques. This is probably the best place in London for interesting clothes, including vintage, goth, cyber and general club-wear. Cyberdog is an experience just to look at, and the extreme basement contains some distinctly adult items. Burleska and Sai Sai are among a number of corest stockists.
  • 3 Camden Lock Village. The three-storey market that stood here burned down in 2008. It has reopened since, but the area just contains a number of small stalls. The owners are trying to get planning permission for re-development.
  • 4 Inverness Street Market (Across Chalk Farm Rd from Camden tube station). This is a small market selling a range of common goods such as fruit and vegetables, cheap clothes and other bits and bobs. The Inverness Street Market is the smallest market in Camden, but it's the original local market in Camden predating the others by decades.
  • 5 The Buck Street Market. This is the first market you see turning right out of the tube station and it has a big sign declaring it "The Camden Market". However, it only sells only the typical funny t-shirts, knock-off designer boots, keyrings, etc., that you can find in practically every city in the world.

Shops

[edit]
Chalk Farm Road

In addition to the markets, there are a large number of interesting shops dotted all around the area.

Take a long slow wander down Chalk Farm Road (it will need to be slow, the sheer number of people makes walking quickly impossible!), checking out the amazing collection of boots and leather that dominate it. Of special note are:

  • 6 Amsterdam London Shop, 232 Camden High St, NW1 8QS. Daily 9AM–7PM. Probably the finest purveyor of curious things in London. They also sell weed and hash-smoking paraphernalia.
  • 7 Official Doc Martens Boot Co. (The British Boot Company), Kentish Town Rd, NW1 8NH (tube: Camden Town  NOR ), +44 20 7485-8505. M-W: 10:30AM-7:30PM, Th-Su: 10AM-7:30PM. Selling Doc Martens since the 1960s. The proprietor is always happy to talk and has some fun tales about the strange requests he has had from famous people. British Boot Company (Q2925716) on Wikidata British Boot Company on Wikipedia
  • 8 Rokit, 225 Camden High St, NW1 7BU. A proud upshoot that took its roots from Camden market and now has four high street stores across London.
  • 9 The Harry Potter Shop at Platform 9¾, King's Cross station, N1 9AP. Daily 9AM–7PM. One-stop emporium for all your wizarding needs, this is the official souvenir shop of the Harry Potter franchise in London. Adjacent is the eponymous platform, where you can have your picture taken pushing a luggage trolley through a solid wall. It's probably the only other Harry Potter-themed store in London outside of the WB Studio Tour in Watford.

Eat

[edit]

Camden has some of the most varied cuisine in all of London. A key part of Camden's food scene are the many stalls offering quick and tasty food from every country possible. Quality varies, but generally it is good and cheap. Stalls tend to be in and around the Lock and Stables markets, but they appear everywhere. A perennial favourite has been the donut and cake stall located next to the bridge, as have the many Chinese and Thai stalls nearby. Camden also contains a large number of more formal restaurants, many of which are relatively inexpensive and open after the stalls have closed.

  • 1 St. Pancras International Station, Pancras Rd. Every day. A selection of cafes at the station. Convenient for a quick bite. St Pancras railway station (Q720102) on Wikidata St Pancras railway station on Wikipedia

Stay safe

[edit]

Camden has long had strong associations with drugs, in particular cannabis (weed) and magic mushrooms. Even during daylight, you are likely to be offered weed or hashish. These dealers will usually accept no for an answer. Remember that these drugs are still illegal, streetside dealers are not to be trusted and often just steal your money if you look interested. Also, there are many undercover police around to catch you.

Walking around Camden at night is generally fine, but gangs of youths can seem threatening, and best avoided if alone. At night walking on well-lit streets, such as Camden High Street, is a good idea but take a taxi if you are feeling insecure.

Fake goods are found in abundance in Camden. Most of the time it's fairly obvious (Bolex watches, etc.), but be careful when purchasing - refunds are not common. Fake DVDs are mostly terrible quality.

Go next

[edit]

Three very good parks are within walking distance of Camden:

  • Regent's Park lies along Camden's western edge, a beautifully planned garden where you can get away from the fast pace of London life.
  • Primrose Hill, immediately to the north of Regent's Park, is easily within walking distance of Camden and has the best views over London.
  • Hampstead Heath is less than 3 km (1.9 mi) away from the heart of Camden Town, or just a few tube stops away.

For shopping, Tottenham Court Rd with its famed electronics stores lies south out of Camden, close to Euston. At the other end of Tottenham Court Road is Oxford Street.

Looking further afield, from St. Pancras International you can catch the Eurostar for Paris, Lille or Brussels.
