IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Belmont Circle, Kenton Lane, HARROW, HA3 8RF

Belmont Circle is a 1930s development of curving shop terraces with housing above and a large traffic roundabout in the centre. Part of the east side is now a petrol station, but around three quarters is still much as built if you look above the shop fronts.

Looking across Belmont Circle.

A 1930s former pub on the north side of Belmont Circle. Now an Indian Restaurant. A previous name was the Spanish Arch, as seen in this picture Image from 2010.

View northward, towards Stanmore; Harrow & Wealdstone - Stanmore branch, closed Belmont - Stanmore (Village) 15/9/52 (goods 6/7/64); Belmont station (only opened 12/9/32) was closed 5/10/64 when line from Harrow was closed (completely).

This is taken from the same location on Kenton Lane as Ben's Image although with the closure of the railway the bridge must have been lowered. Just about the only common feature is the line of houses just visible through the trees to the left. Although the London & North Western Railway opened their line to Stanmore through here in 1890, Belmont's station was not built until 1932. In fact it only lasted for twenty years and three days before being closed to passenger traffic in 1952. The line lingered on with occasional freight trains to Stanmore but closed completely in 1964.

A largely intact development from the 1930s consisting of terraced shop-houses around a central roundabout.

The station seen here from the track to the north. The loop line to the right was removed shortly after the date of this photograph and trains then used the other platform.
