Bayswater Road
Bayswater Road is the main road running along the northern edge of Hyde Park in London. Originally part of the A40 road, it is now designated part of the A402 road. Route

In the east, Bayswater Road originates at Marble Arch roadway at the Marble Arch junction, and at its western end it continues into Notting Hill Gate. It is mostly within the City of Westminster but a small portion of the road's western end lies in Kensington and Chelsea. History
The road is part of the Via Trinobantia, an old Roman Road, later becoming a turnpike road. It had become known as Bayswater Road by the 1860s. The Swan Inn and Black Lion are both on Bayswater Road and were both established in the 18th century. In 1861, George Francis Train experimented with a horse tramway system on Bayswater Road. Since February 2023, the western end of Bayswater Road has had the joint official name of Kyiv Road, done by Westminster Council as a consequence of the Russian invasion of Ukraine the previous year, as this section of the road runs close to the Russian Embassy. However, the renaming does not apply to addresses on the road, due perhaps to prevent confusion with another West London street in Richmond upon Thames called Kew Road. Cultural references
