With this book, well-known local historian and author Don Walter
completes his three volume 'past & present' survey of the
London Borough of Harrow. As in Harrow Past & Present and
Pinner Past & Present, he illustrates, by contrasting a wide
range of previously unpublished photographs with their modern
equivalents, how much the district has changed over the last two
hundred years. The ancient settlement of Stanmore, originally two
Domesday manors, and the Victorian sprawl of Harrow Weald, which
developed rapidly when the railway arrived in the 1830s, had very
different beginnings, but their history became intertwined as the
borough grew. However well you know the northern part of today's
Borough of Harrow the contrasts you will find in these photographs
will be a revelation, while Don Walter's text will entertain and
inform in equal measure.
