Hello You,(or is it Me)

I live in Harrow and can tell you that Parkfield Road is in South Harrow.

Parkfield Terrace no longer exists.

Harrow-on-the-Hill is where the famous Harrow School founded by Henry V111 is.

Harrow is made up of various different wards. North,South and West. East Harrow is known as Harrow and Wealdstone.

Any further information needed, just shout.

regards

Harrow lies on the plain below Harrow-on-the-Hill. From my grandparents' house I could see the church at the top of the hill easily. We used to walk there when we were kids.
