London Open House offers a wonderful opportunity to explore buildings all over London – including in our Borough. The full listing of 27 buildings open to see in H&F over the weekend of 22-23 September is available here.  Why not also stroll or cycle round the nominations and winners of our own Environment Awards ?

And as the northern boundaries of the Borough become more important, on both dates there is a walk round part of the Old Oak & Park Royal Development Area led by art historian Magdalen Evans, details here
The walk could be combined with visits to other entries in the sometimes less-familiar north of the Borough include the former governor’s house in the gates of HMP Wormwood Scrubs which houses the Koestler Trust, the UK’s leading prison arts charity; and the Hythe Road Studios of ACAVA (the Association for the Advancement of Visual Arts). There are tours round the ex-BBC Television Centre Development at White City and the BBC’s previous administrative headquarters, now Westworks on Wood lane.
