Holloway, Camden, and St Pancras were all areas that saw significant development and change in London during the 19th century. Camden and St Pancras became key transportation hubs, with the construction of the Great Northern Railway and the opening of King's Cross Station. Holloway, on the other hand, was known for its bustling markets and the presence of a large number of industrial and manufacturing enterprises.

Historical places of interest in these areas include St Pancras Old Church, which dates back to the Norman era and contains many historic artifacts, as well as the British Library, which was constructed in the 19th century and contains a vast collection of important manuscripts, books, and other materials.

In terms of the class of people who lived in these areas, Camden and St Pancras were home to a mix of working-class and middle-class residents, with many people employed in the transportation and manufacturing industries. Holloway, meanwhile, was known for its large population of working-class residents, many of whom worked in the area's factories and markets. Over time, these areas would continue to grow and change, becoming some of the most diverse and vibrant parts of London.
