Sept 2012: Canons Park to the left

Canons Park (nothing to do with cannons, its more to do with Canons or Monks who belonged to the St. Augustine Priory of St. Bartholomew in London who owned the Stanmore Manor before the reformation) is a lovely open space.

Not too big, but wide open spaces

One can see the church in the background

All this belonged to one man once, and then it was cut up and distributed…

There’s a kind of a weird Roman Temple
