More about this scene
There is perhaps a brighter face to the village centre today than is apparent in the photograph, although the traffic problem is ghastly. St Martins Church still dominates the centre, a particularly fine building with an atmosphere of truly rural godliness as opposed to its being a spiritual centre of metroland. In architectural terms it has much to offer within its basically 13th-century fabric: a 17th-century bread cupboard, hatchments, wall paintings and monuments, including one to Jane Clitherow who died in 1659, probably by Joshua Marshall. For further reading see 'The Goodliest Place In Middlesex' by Eileen M Boult, published in 1989 by Hillingdon Borough Libraries.
