As part of Heritage Open Days 2025
Harrow’s architecture reflects a rich tapestry of historical depth and suburban expansion. The borough is particularly defined by its inter-war suburban housing, developed during the rapid growth of the early 20th century and characterised by semi-detached homes, red brick facades, bay windows, and tree-lined avenues—hallmarks of the “Metro-land” era. This suburban character contrasts with the historic core of Harrow on the Hill, where centuries-old buildings like St Mary’s Church and the prestigious Harrow School showcase Gothic Revival and Georgian styles.
Also notable is Headstone Manor, a rare example of a medieval moated manor house dating back to the 14th century, offering insight into Harrow’s rural past.
Discover how Harrow’s buildings reflect its social history, cultural influences, and urban evolution. Whether you’re a lifelong resident or a first-time.
