HARLESDEN

Harlesden is a scary and run down part of North West London near Wembley. It is home to a McVities factory and as a result has a constant whiff of biscuits in the air.

Originally this was where the Mean Fiddler was situated and for years the offices were situated at the building long after the venue portion had closed.

Briefly I lived there in my first experience of staying in London. Initially intimidating the place soon calmed down to me even though there felt like there was a constant/consistent degree of threat in the air.
