We are very excited to be participating in the London Festival of Architecture which is running in multiple London Boroughs in June.

There are several events running in Colindale including;

North to Edgware Tuesday 6 June 6pm – 7.30pm

A short film about North London’s overground sections of the Northern Line Edgware Branch. Opened in three stages, to Golders Green, to Hendon, and finally to Edgware, this film uses old maps, railway plans, photographs, and posters to tell the story of how this railway shaped this part of London. The film screening will be followed by a Question and answer session.
