It's a sunny Sunday afternoon in May, 1956, and a Harrow schoolboy, with traditional 'boater', makes his way up West Street. Not a motor car in sight!

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.

The old 'North Star', Harrow-on-the-Hill
Now a private residence, but the owners have taken care to maintain much of the building's character - as 'streetscape'. The brewers' name is still there - perhaps tiled, Looking closer, I found that the windows were engraved - 'Lounge', 'Saloon Bar', 'Public Bar'.
