The Polish War Memorial Remembrance Garden
The Polish War Memorial was erected in 1948 and substantially restored in 1996 from public donations. It commemorates the 2,165 Polish airmen who lost their lives in the Second World War fighting alongside the Western allies. See http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5768083
The Polish Air Force in Great Britain was formed in 1940 from airmen who, after the fall of Poland in 1939, had escaped to France where they fought until its collapse, and from Poles living in the USA, Canada, Argentina, and other countries. Their ranks were increased by Poles released from Soviet labour camps and exile in Siberia. Some 17,000 men and women served in the Polish Air Force which comprised 16 operational flying squadrons.
The location of the memorial is adjacent to RAF Northolt which was the main base for the Polish fighter squadrons during the Battle of Britain.
The adjacent Polish War Memorial Remembrance Garden was opened in September 2015 to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain.

Barrier on Edwards Avenue
Presumably to stop short cutting through the residential streets. I guess it works, but it's very ugly.
