“I’m inviting you to linger awhile to enjoy the plane trees and green space of Brook Green, to hear some stories of people who’ve lived there, and to admire some splendid buildings. One of these you’ll certainly have seen many times on film.”
Yes, it’s the inimitable, the delightful Ann, whetting our appetites for her upcoming Brook Green walk.*
Maybe let that place name sink in. Feel it? Ah, yesss, Brook Green – the prettiest place name in London. And the great thing about Brook Green is, it’s not just a pretty face – it’s full of interest, full of character and characters. A West London Aladdin’s Cave of great stories.
*Full title, Brook Green – the Secret Side of Hammersmith.
