A walk of fame celebrating Harlesden's reggae heritage has been launched in north-west London.
The Harlesden Walk of Music's commemorative discs pay homage to musicians, producers and record shops that made the area the reggae capital of the UK, from the arrival of the Windrush generation onwards.
Inspired by the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the project was created by community group Harlesden Bassline in partnership with Brent Council, using £70,000 of funding from the government's UK Shared Prosperity Fund.
It launched on International Reggae Day, 1 July, honouring artists with links to the area including Janet Kay, Aswad, General Levy, and The Cimarons.
