Histroy of Harrow

Harrow, formerly known as Greenhill, was a small hamlet of farms at the foot of HarrowHill. For almost a millennium, the centre of Harrow was atop the hill, but this started to change in the 19th century. Circa 1852, the village had 8 houses, 17 cottages, and one inn, with 141 people. Harrow is mainly known for it's prestigious Harrow School for Boys, but it also sports two shopping centres at the heart of the town.

Grim's Dyke is a Best Western Hotel in Harrow Weald.  The building's history is fascinating. It was built between 1870 and 1872, and purchased in 1890 by one W. S. Gilbert. You may know him better as one half of operatic writing duo Gilbert and Sullivan.

Yes I have been watching Haringay develop over the past few years and really is one borough oozing with potential. I am also a serious amateur history buff and didn’t realise how ancient this part of London was back in the old days ! Did you know that Harrow-on-the-Hill was once a hotbed for pagan activity. The area used to be called 'Gumeniga hergae' which translates from Anglo-Saxon English as 'heathen shrine'. The area's famous medieval church, St Mary's, is built on an old place of pagan worship.

There are many things to do in Harrow , from visiting the Headstone Manor and museum if you're into learning more about history to HarroClimbing Wall where you can have fun testing your strength by trying to climb the walls. 

The St Georges shopping centre is open everyday for those of you who are shopaholics , you can visit lots of different shops and places to eat.

If again you are more prone to being active then there is even a large shooting range called Play Golf London , that you can visit with family and friends for a fun day out.
