I walked this on a overcast Saturday afternoon in autumn.

The walk is fully suburban, and in my opinion rather boring. For some reason it avoids Chandos Recreation Ground, which would have made a nice break from the endless streets. The only highlights were crossing Edgware Brook, and the lovely trees on Sherborne Gardens. I didn't take more photos than that!.

Urban walking from A to B from one tube station to another. Nice form of getting steps up . Easy to walk and accessible for all abilities. Route is accurate with no steps.

Urban walking, passes two recreation grounds. At Chandos rec the route line goes around the outside but it is possible to walk inside the grounds which makes for a greener walk.
All surfaces paved/asphalt, no steps.

A suburban walk between two tube stations with surrounding shops. Pavement walking all the way, passing by Chandos Recreation Ground and Eton Grove Open Space. Generally flat and easily accessible.
St. Margaret's Church close to Edgware station dates from the 15th Century. Edgware High Street is part of the Roman Watling Way between London and St. Alban's.
