Surprising Suburbia
Northolt in Northwest London
"Northolt had more surprises, too many for this article, but one worth mentioning I discovered as I headed home through a large mass of social housing known as the Racecourse Estate. I always assumed it was because the builders of this post-WW2 estate liked horse racing and named all the roads after famous racecourses, but it turned out to be more interesting than that. There really was a racecourse here in the 1930s, and a rather special one too..."
