    Made by Northolt High School students in the year 1986

    Take a nostalgic trip, passing many familiar old Northolt places along the way : THE PLOUGH PUB, THE CROWN PUB, ST MARYS CHURCH NORTHOLT, ISLIP MANOR PARK, EASTCOTE LANE, MANDEVILLE ROAD, NORTHOLT TUBE STATION, THE LOAD OF HAY UB (NOW THE HARVESTER NORTHOLT), NORTHOLT TUBE STATION, NORTHOLT SWIMMING BATHS POOL (now northolt leisure centre gym).
    Recorded on VHS video on a camcorder in the year 1986.
    Starring Anthony Gill, produced with the help of Northolt High School. (re-edited 30 years later in 2016)
    Please comment below if you recognise any of these Northolt landmarks or kids - and let me know your memories of Northolt Middlesex.

    Lived in Northolt from 1975-1992 not far from st Mary’s church. Used to skateboard down around there, happy days!

    Man it's CRAZY to see soo much of northolt back then.. I was born in the mid 90's so i grew up seeing northolt in the late 90's and 2000's, even to this day. I have to say it was much more of a countryside than what it is now.. Much more cozy, there's so much more development in northolt nowadays. Thank You for uploading this!

      @@RobMidlife It looks exactly the same apart from the plough being flats and a little Sainsbury's and the swimming baths being a new one. The Load of hay is a crappy harvester and 2 of them on the bikes have still
      got the same barnets.

    Amazing how Northolt gangs now shoot Rayners Lane gangs and vice versa. It's full on gang warfare between HA2 and UB5.
    I'm 40 and grew up in Rayners Lane, I had friends and raver mates in Northolt, but no chance of that these days. Learnt to swim at Swimerama!
    I fled London a few years ago but work with a geezer who'd have been the age of the riders in this video who lived on the Islip manor park estate.

    Stumbled upon this video as my family have lived in Northolt for years and my mum has lived here all her life. We've all become fairly convinced that the woman in the underpass at 4:10 is her 😂. When I questioned her about it she said she had that same hair style and jacket in 1986 and she lived very close to Northolt Station where this was filmed.

    The scum bags burned The Plough down so it could be redeveloped. Amazing how they get away with stuff like that.
    You wouldn't be able to ride a bike there now, someone would nick it off you before you got on the saddle😢
