After another parade of shops on Whitten Avenue West, you walk up onto a bridge to cross the tube, where there was quite a fair view (photo #5), before going past Sudbury Town tube station (photo #6) to continue along Harrow Road, and along Barham Park (photo #7) to end up at the busy Wembley Central station....

After having left Harrow-on-the-Hill, the route then proceeds along the busy Northolt road for a bit, which it turns away from just before South Harrow station. You cross the rail way and the Harrow sidings, and the rest of the route is along the busy-ish Mandeville Road (photo #3) to end up at the finish at Northolt tube station....

The route starts at Southall, and then continues along it's busy broadway towards the Grand Union Canal, which it follows for most of the walk. It's a pleasant route to follow, with plenty of wild life and boaters to keep your attention, although it can get a little monotonous at times....

This path wasn't passable due to large amounts of water on the path, and my boots weren't high enough. On the other side of the fairly busy West End Road, the route continues first over a tarmac path, then a gravel path, and finally a dirt path through the woods, towards the Yeading Brook Meadows, where the paths were decidedly muddy, but still passable. It is mapped to cut off a corner near Park Road/ St Andrews Road, and although the path is there, I didn't spot it, and instead walked around the construction area....

The other end of the route also has Battle of Britain connections, though the Polish War Memorial at the Northolt roundabout on the A40 is not on the route itself....

After the Wembley/Sudbury section, most of the route is through suburban streets, though there's one short section of greenery through Horsenden Hill. The route is predominantly through housing built in the inter-war period, during the large-scale expansion of London suburbs. These are punctuated occasionally by the appearance of small parades of shops, like the one in the picture in Sudbury....

There is a new grit path which by-passes the marked route (red line on photo), the marked path is across rough grass but you get to see the layout of a 13thC manor and a beautiful church....

I enjoyed this route- particularly the climb up to Harrow on the Hill....

On the other side take the small gate next to the big gate across a building site on a well-made diverted path. There is then a long section through suburban residential roads of North Hillingdon (if roads are not your thing, take the first part of Uxbhar2 which comes within 120m of this path by Freezeland Covert). At the South end of Ten Acres join the Dog Rose Ramble path left across the Golden Bridge, there is a good path past the West London Shooting Grounds, then across a busy road to a signed path next to an Adventure Golf center (Ankylosaurus!)....

After leaving Harrow town center there is a steep (28%) climb through a park to St Mary's Church whose spire is synonymous with Harrow-on-the -Hill....

There is a short section alongside Horsenden Hill and I was tempted to take a detour through the woods....
