London Off the Beaten Path Tips by mwe

There are excellent examples of 1920s/'30s British suburban architecture in London's suburbs: the north/west sector of outer London is arguably the best, featuring Art Deco cinemas & houses in various styles, e.g. mock tudor & futurist styles with flat roofs & curved window glass.
If you don't want to go too far from main roads try the North Circular (A406 road) in Hendon & the A312 road through Northolt.
Pinner (Elton John's birthplace), on the northwestern edge of Greater London has a very English villagey centre, despite being part of London. Harrow-on-the-hill, originally a village, before being surrounded by London's northwest suburbs, has a similar rural English look about it.
