The large shooting grounds by Sharvel Lane were established in the 1930s, replacing some in Perivale (where the Hoover Building is now). This building and its outbuildings house a restaurant and a gun shop as well as a base for the shooting school. The grounds originally included a rifle range, but are now used for clay pigeon shooting.

Down Barns Moated Site is the 13th century site of a former manor house with a moat. The earliest reference to the manor house was in 1212 when it belonged to Roger de la Lune, the Constable of the Tower of London. It had many owners after him, including Nicholas Brembre who was beheaded for High Treason in 1388 when his manor house was demolished - it was never rebuilt. However, the moat has been preserved. It was probably not used for defence but would have provided a water supply for the house and animals. It may have provided fish for the manor and given protection against fires. Today the owners are All Souls College, Oxford. The site was restored in 1989/90 with grant aid from English Heritage. This shows the northern arm of the moat from outside the site of the manor house.
