Generally surrounded by surburban developments of detached and semi-detached homes with gardens, and celebrated in John Betjeman’s Metro-land, these areas of London seem to come off second best when compared to the Mayor’s policies on the central boroughs and Thames Gateway. This exhibition will look at the characteristics of the surburban ring of the capital and the part these areas play in the planning of London.
