- The boys go out for a ride on their bikes, while dad takes a walk with his cine camera, from Harvist Road, Queens Park, across Salusbury Rd and up Brondesbury Road. We see children playing outside on the steps of run down Victorian houses, building works, children playing in a pile of sand outside one of the houses, a local shop (C Worrell Tropical and Continental Foods), some of the locals, a short glimpse of Kilburn High Road, and some boys playing on a garage roof.

It's so nice to see the area I grew up in before my birth, I know all the roads so nice.
Wow! I was living in Brondesbury Road in 1975. I was 5 but wasn't allowed to play out on the street. Looked like some of the other nearby streets including Salusbury road too.
Your dad was our family doctor.
The Baileys and Simeones.
Our back garden backed onto your dads.
Thank you for this memory.
I remember the Baileys! Didn't you have a terrible problem with a tree root undermining your wall and have to have some major structural work done? Around mid to late 70s?
@@BurlSolomons it would have made me 10 but that does sound familiar.
I spent most of my childhood living above the grocers on salusbury road.
I remember dad if I'm right as an imposing big man but a lovely man and didnt he have a Volvo?
Mum Dad and sister lived there. Throughout this period
Big up Kilburn, home of the Irish in London
County Kilburn. Most of the Irish left in Camden Islington now
Not many Irish there anymore,its full of Third World dreggies and druggies now.
Not any more they all left
Clapham is the spot now, not navies but professionals
Happy memories of life in Kilburn from a resident of Messina Avenue opposite Grange Park
I had a Gf around 1980,who lived in Messina(quite close to the "National") Helena Donovan!
At the scene 1:29, on the right-hand side of the road, unless I am mistaken, is where queens park library was and is still situated.
I lived at number 52 Rathbone house on the Kilburn square estate in 1975.
I'd love to see clips of everyday life at that time.
Yes, it is still there. :)
My home Kilburn ❤
I lived at 125 Brondesbury Road for a short time in 1974
I was living at number 35 at that time.
I was 18 back then, when the world had some normality. Just look at it today 2022..?
Really cool
I was an A-level student before going to Manchester University in 1979.
First movie I watched after landing London, was 'Grease' on 14 Sept 1978, at the CLASSIC cinema, along Kilburn High Road, next to the Kilburn Tube Station.
'You are the one that I want............'
Grandparents used to live in Randolph Avenue,just down from the tube and I saw the 1st Mary Poppins in the state kilburn.used to call in the Carlton Tavern where grandad George supped his Guinness.
Kilburn Square,Carlton Vale and the rec.
1978, I stayed in the neighborhood,
2A Fordwych Road NW2 3TP.
Funny, I was going to say that looked like Dr Solomons dog. :)
Kids made their own healthy entertainment them days not like today's dumb ass smart phone zombies
I am 62 now.
Anybody here remember a bomb hoax at the Old Bell on the High Road in 1976
No, but a 3 pounder went off in biddies in 1975 ish.
@@patrickglennon7058 I remember it well, I was working in the Red Lion that Saturday night, lot of windows blew in on the High Road that night :)
@@patbreen3271 well to be fair, windows going in on a Saturday night on the Kilburn high road was not unusual.
@@patrickglennon7058 Haha 😂
Why aren't people going to prayer call?
