Statement from Headstone Manor & Museum:
Following recent Government advice, Headstone Manor & Museum will be closed to the public from close of play Wednesday 18th March until further notice. This decision has been made with the best interests of our customers and visitors in mind. We will be reviewing the situation at the end of April.
We are looking at exciting ways you can enjoy the museum and our activities online and will announce some plans very shortly!
Over the next few days we will be in contact with all of our customers who have booked the Great Barn for their special occasion. We’re a small team so please bear with us but be assured that we will contact everyone. Covid-19 will have significant financial implications for Headstone Manor & Museum and we are asking our Great Barn clients to consider postponing their event to a future date. If this option is unsuitable for any customers, we will offer a refund.
Thank you for your patience and understanding whilst we continue to work closely with our community.

Harrow Council are currently consulting on a proposed Northern Cycle Route scheme.
The Northern Cycle Route scheme proposals aim to provide a safer, more direct and more attractive cycle connection between Pinner, Hatch End, Headstone and Edgware. The proposals are a mixture of segregated, advisory and quiet sections of route.
In the Pinner area the only change to the current physical roads and footways (pavements) lay out and parking restrictions would be:
Barrow Point Avenue / Woodhall Avenue:
The existing unregistered land connecting Woodhall Avenue, Barrow Point Lane and Barrow Point Avenue is currently used by pedestrians. In the interest of general public, the council proposes to provide a 2.5m wide shared use footway for use by pedestrians and cycles. Double yellow “no parking at any times” parking restrictions would be installed at the dead end of Woodhall Avenue.
The proposals include clearing off unnecessary vegetation and provide bollards to prevent vehicle access across the two roads. The proposal will provide a key connection on the proposed cycle route connecting Pinner and Uxbridge Road.
The Public Consultation continues up to the 14th of February and the link to the Harrow Council consultation website is: https://consult.harrow.gov.uk/consult.ti/northcycle/consultationHome
David Simmonds, MP for Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner Constituency, will be holding a drop-in surgery meeting at Daisy’s in the Park, Pinner Memorial Park, on Friday 31st January from 10am to 11.30am.
There is a current planning application for the installation of a 15m high monopole supporting 6 antennas and 3 dishes (3G And 4G) and the installation of 6 equipment cabinets in West End Avenue, near to the junction with Marsh Road:
This monopole would replace the monopole and cabinets currently in situ in front of the “Churchill Retirement Flats” in Marsh Road.
The planning application may be viewed on the Harrow Council Planning Services website:
https://planningsearch.harrow.gov.uk/planning/search-applications
using the “Application Number” reference: P/3805/19
The planning application is out for the statutory public consultation and comments may be entered on the website for this application. Any comments should be submitted to Harrow Council by 24th January 2020.
HS2 are to hold another “Drop In” meeting on the afternoon of Monday 9th December at the Cannon Lane Methodist Church Hall (Cannon Lane Methodist Church, Cannon Lane, Pinner) from 2 to 5pm, at which residents of the roads that will be affected by the forthcoming installation of a high capacity electricity supply cable through parts of Pinner South may ask questions and express concerns about these works.
The affected roads in Pinner South are sections of:
Rayners Lane
Roundabout at Rayners Lane/
Whittington Way /Suffolk Road
Whittington Way (the route will cut across a road, rather than travel along the length of these roads)
St Michael’s Crescent
Cannon Lane
Cannonbury Avenue
Rushdene Road

We are expecting the work to start early in 2020.
The Pinner Association is being briefed at regular meetings with the Project Manager and Contractor (AMCM) for the development of twenty three storey mews style houses on the site of the now closed Waxwell Lane car park.
We have been informed that the work to strip the old tarmac off the areas of the site to be built upon is to start next week (the week beginning 9th December 2019). This will involve the movement of two large lorries in and out of the site per day, and these vehicles will approach and leave Waxwell Lane via Bridge Street.
In January the piling work will start for a period of approximately two weeks, and this may cause some noise audible outside the site. Work will not start before 8 am and will end by 6 pm (Monday to Friday) and 1 pm (Saturday).
When very large equipment is being manoeuvred on and off the site the parking bays outside the Police Station in Waxwell Lane will be temporarily suspended.
The AMCM have assured us that they will be abiding by the requirements of the “Considerate Constructors Scheme”.
