Harrow Weald

A forest that lost to the semis·Greater London·London

Harrow Weald is named after a forest and built out of semis, which tells you who won that argument sometime in the 1930s. The ancient woodland held on up the hill on the Common, where people drive to walk the dog among trees older than the borough. There is no station in the middle of it, so the place runs on buses and a shared belief that Harrow & Wealdstone counts as walking distance.
