Harrow Then & Now

Don Walter’s view that ‘Harrow is not the place it was’ is evident in this selection of archive images of Harrow’s streets over the last century, placed alongside modern photographs of the same views today. But modern Harrow has changed both a huge amount and surprisingly little over the last 100 years due both to population growth and diversification and the clever actions of far-sighted town administrators of decades past.

Harrow Then & Now takes us on a tour of the changing face of this historic area, from the ever changing central streets to the beautifully preserved historic school and its environs of Harrow Hill.
