We are looking along Mill Hill Road from the Shippons, a large public house in Thigwall Road.
This lovely village extends from Highwood Hill to the north to Mill Hill East underground station in the south.
Botley Station (entrance on the left of the photograph), which is approached via Mill Hill, is well outside the village. One descends to it from a road bridge.
A cyclist gingerly crosses Edgware Road as Watling Avenue drops away eastwards towards Mill Hill.
Here we have a closer view of the house on the crossroads before going down Mill Hill. It has a varied brick pattern for the walls, mullion windows and a tiled roof.
Arts and Crafts-style buildings, and the churches of St Michael and All Angels and the Sacred Heart and St Mary Immaculate set the pace and quality at this new Mill Hill, away from the old centre but close
Station Road is readily recognisable as it drops away from the underground station towards Hale Lane and Mill Hill.

Pewsey is a small town in the middle of the Vale that bears its name, noted for its white horse cut into the downland at Milk Hill.
Robert Burns came to the town in 1791 and lived with his wife and family in a house in Millhole Brae. Burns died in 1796 at the age of 36 and is buried in St Michael's Church.
The beauty of the area was well known to Turner and Wordsworth, who were inspired by the waterfalls, Mill Gill and Whitfield.
Up to 20 stables ran their horses on the gallops at Six Mile Hill.
