Northolt Recreation Ground
The blue buildings are the children's play centre in the north side of the Recreation Ground off Newmarket Avenue. The Recreation Ground has an interesting history insofar as it started life in 1929 as Northolt Racecourse specializing in the then new sport of pony racing. Extensive cantilever stands were built, and other facilities added during the 1930s included an electric totalizator, a totalizator stand, and an artificial watering system for softening the course. For a time the track was extremely popular, but racing ceased just after the outbreak of the Second World War, and the racecourse was taken over as an ordnance depot. Plans to re-open the racecourse after the war did not come to fruition, and much of it was eventually built over with housing, leaving only today's Recreation Ground. However the racing connection is remembered by some of the local road names such as Newmarket, Ascot, Kempton, Cheltenham, etc..

Northolt: Pett's Hill railway bridge
The bridge carries Network Rail's trackwork over this notorious traffic bottleneck where the A312 and A4090 roads meet and cross over, just west of Northolt Park railway station. The boundary between the London Borough of Ealing and the London Borough of Harrow is on the far side of the bridge, Ealing being this side and Harrow on the far side. I seem to recall that up until quite recently this was a narrower brick bridge with the pedestrian pavements on either side passing through their own separate arches.
