An Old Inhabitant

Project Gutenberg and The Online Books Page both list An Old Inhabitant as the author of Kensington, Notting Hill, and Paddington: With Remembrances of the Locality 38 Years Ago. In the sources available here, no verified personal identity, dates, or fuller biography are provided.

That suggests the name was likely used as a descriptive pen name rather than a fully documented public author profile. The work itself points to a writer interested in memory, place, and everyday change, offering a backward look at the neighborhoods of Kensington, Notting Hill, and Paddington.

Because reliable biographical details are scarce, the author remains a somewhat anonymous voice from the past—one remembered mainly through this surviving glimpse of local life.
