Harrow is mentioned as Herges in Domesday and probably derived its name from 'heathen shrine or temple'. The original settlement developed on a hill and was the site of pagan worship before the Saxons arrived. Today St Marys Church marks the spot. The towns position makes it a focal point for the area but its expansion did not really begin until the 19th century when it became even more of a fashionable area to live. Harrow stations are all on the Metropolitan lines and Harrow and Wealdstone is on the Bakerloo line.
Harrow is surrounded by country parks and there is a good range of leisure facilities in the vicinity. The famous public school was founded in the 16th century and is where Winston Churchill went to school. A frequent bus service stopping just outside Brandreth Court gives access to the centre of Harrow with its shops and amenities and the surrounding district.
