Capital Ring Part 9 - Greenford to South Kenton

Details

We will be walking part 9 of the Capital Ring walk, from Greenford to South Kenton.
The Capital ring is a 78-mile circular walking route around London, split into 15 sections.

Starting from just outside Greenford tube station (Central Line), we will walk through the Paradise Fields Wetlands, along the Grand Junction Canal, up Horsenden Hill (with some good views of the London skyline on a clear day), past Horsenden Farm, through Harrow-on-the-hill and the grandeur of Harrow school and finish at South Kenton station (Bakerloo line). We will be walking for approximately three hours and the route has a fair number of hills and moderate climbs - more than the average Capital Ring walk. It can also get muddy on this one so bring suitable footwear and clothing if it looks like rain or has been raining.
I'll keep a watch on the weather and will cancel the event a day or two before if the weather looks like rain. This one does get muddy, so my view is to cancel and reschedule even if there is light rain.
Please note - unless there is a transport issue affecting everyone, we will aim to start off on the walk at 13:05pm (also note the slightly later start compared to some of the other walks). I will add my location tracking on Glympse so if you are late, we will not wait but you will be able to catch us up.
At the end of the walk I'm planning to head to a pub (The Windermere) right next to South Kenton station for a drink and/or bite to eat, let me know in the comments if you are up for this so I can book a table if there are a lot of us
