Harrow on the Hill: The Old Etonian
Droll humour with the naming of this restaurant on the High Street. Note the fine photographic composition with the spire of Harrow on the Hill church coming straight out of the chimneys at the end of the terrace! Doh!

Harrow on the Hill. Middlesex
Complete with schoolboy in traditional 'boater'. Only one motor car visible in this 1956 picture. This is High Street, and the junction with West Street is on the left just before reaching the clock. The spire visible is that of the Parish and Borough Church of St. Mary.

Harrow on the Hill: Waldron Road
Waldron Road has to be one of the narrowest two-way through roads in the country, which coupled with the steepness of the hill makes driving a little difficult. The distance from kerb to kerb is only about 4 metres. The terraced houses on the right are original, those on the left quite modern (they are not shown on the Ordnance Survey map of 1935 for example), but built in the style of the originals.

Harrow on the Hill: The former King's Head public house
This former public house and hotel is believed to have been built in the late 18th century on the site of King Henry VIII's hunting lodge. It survived until about 2001 before being converted into flats. Numerous blogs have blamed the council for allowing the conversion of this historic and well-remembered landmark and the loss of much of its fine and interesting interior. The carved words "King's Head Hotel" can just about be picked out in the white rendered stonework of the parapet wall of the section of the building to the right.

Harrow on the Hill: The former North Star public house
According to one source on the internet this fine former Edwardian corner pub, with its original attractive Benskin's Brewery signage, closed as long ago as 1957. It is now a private residence. Crown Street, formerly known as Hogarth Lane, runs right to left while
