Dist:0.9km southeast<br/>This, and several other buildings, have been boarded up. I think there's a need for a category of "derelict" buildings as there's no actual demoloition going on, but it has been taken out of use.

Dist:0.9km south<br/>This pub is on the west side of the junction of Annesley Avenue (to the right) and Colindale Avenue. The 1873 Ordnance Survey map shows this as an area of scattered farms along either side of Watling Street, one of which was named Collin Dale, which must have been within a couple of a hundred metres of this location.

Dist:0.9km northwest<br/>The track bed looks to have been recently refurbished in this view taken from the A5109 Deansbrook Road overbridge. The train is heading south from Edgware towards Burnt Oak station, and the trailing unit is No. 51543.

Dist:0.9km southeast<br/>The Silk Stream is a short but important urban watercourse in north-west London, flowing from the confluence of Deans Brook and Edgware Brook in [[TQ1991]] to discharge into the Brent Reservoir in [[TQ2188]]. It is seen here looking downstream from the Colindale Avenue road bridge.
