The first thing to keep in mind is that the town has a very strong community feel. Although the area is located in north east London it still has the feel of a country village. There is excellent staying power, meaning that a number of families remain in the area for generations.
The view from the top of the hill is one of the best in the whole of London. You should be able to spot numerous landmarks, including Windsor on a clear day. Sunsets in the area are good and you can get a fantastic view of fireworks on special occasions too.
An important thing to note is that the station is not located on the hill itself. It is a short distance to the north, close to Harrow town centre. The local Tube stations are also situated around the hill, including West and South Harrow, Sudbury, and South Kenton. These stations are served by different Tube lines including Metropolitan and Piccadilly.
The area is home to some highly renowned cafes and restaurants. The Doll’s House on the Hill is one of the most well regarded because of its vintage look and stunning cake.
Harrow School does tend to dominate the area a little bit. At certain points during the day throughout the typical week the high street is full of schoolboys with their iconic straw hats.
