Kenton
Brent, London
Kenton sits in northern Brent, on the Harrow border, in a quiet belt of interwar suburbia laid out around the Metropolitan and Bakerloo lines. The entire ward falls inside a conservation area, which keeps the streetscape tightly managed. The Grade II listed Church of the Ascension and the K8 telephone kiosk at Northwick Park Station are the two formal heritage notes, and Northwick Park itself provides 18 hectares of open green at the ward's eastern edge, with another 28 hectares elsewhere. The food scene is surprisingly active for a suburban ward and air quality sits in the middle of the pack. The catches are the connectivity score, which is only moderate despite the Tube presence because journey times to central London are long, the very shallow pool of outstanding-rated schools nearby, and the market score, which reflects limited affordability relative to the amenities on offer.
