George Grey, Earl of Harold Memorial-Obelisk
Historical landmark
👍👍 I cried the entire time I was there. So painfully beautiful. Especially the sacks of dog shite scattered so artfully around the base.

Hampstead Road Locks
Historical landmark
👍👍 A no. 1 Lock! The Hampstead Road Lock no. 1 is the first of twelve locks encountered by a skipper en route to Limehouse Basin. The twin locks were built between 1818 and 1820 as part of the Regent's Canal. The twin lock is manually operated and has a drop of 2.4 metres. As a signpost indicates it is...

The Master - Oldest Tree in Middlesex
Historical landmark
👍👍 A veteran gnarled oak over 400 years old.. and counting, reputedly the oldest tree in Middlesex. Hard to fathom why this tree doesn’t merit inclusion or acknowledgement in the list of ‘greatest trees of London.’

Herbert Chapman Statue
Historical landmark
😐 Well, since I am not a big football fan, I didn't really know what was going on with this statue, but I am glad they are there. Not high art, but art none the less.

St. Mary's Church Tower image

St. Mary's Church Tower
Historical landmark
😐 Well maintained grounds, an isolated atmospheric Tower and some mature trees including 2 Ginkgo Bilobas. Worth a peek if you're adrift hereabouts.

Kentish Town Lock (3)
Historical landmark
👍👍 A nice place to sit and enjoy the weather when it is nice and sunny. Located at the edge of Kentish Town and Camden Town, the Lock provides you with a moving history of how boats navigate through the Canal system. Within 5 minutes of Camden Town Tube Station and Camden Road Overground Station. If yo...

Gate of Honour
Historical landmark
👍👍 In honour of what brings us to a place of solidarity, as we bless each other and those gone by that share in times where we are at a loss for words.
4.60 (15 reviews) (~1.47 km from centre)
Betstyle Circus Roundabout image

Betstyle Circus Roundabout
Historical landmark
👍👍 Definitely in my top 10 roundabouts well worth the visit.

Camlet Moat image

Camlet Moat
Historical landmark
👍 This protected ancient site a worthwhile detour into the surrounding woodlands sustaining and nurturing its mystical allure. Origins, purpose and significance shrouded in veils of conjecture and speculation, tinged by the fairy-dust of lore and creed. Yet, perhaps a sense of ... the primordial puls...
