Kentish Town. A hamlet and prebendal manor of St. Paul’s, north-west of St. Pancras, and written in Court-rolls of the 14th century as Kaunteloe or de Kaunteloe. The lease passed, in 1670, into the hands of the Jeffreys family, and subsequently, by marriage, to the first Earl Camden, in whose family it still remains.
