Getting around

Styled after the classic Underground diagram, a mood rather than a map.
Cricklewood station is a seven-minute walk. Central London is a stop or two after that.
Thameslink runs straight through the West End and the City without a change, so most commutes are one train. Typical off-peak times, door to platform not included.
Times are indicative and vary by time of day. Check Citymapper or TfL for live journeys.
The things you need most weeks are the closest things to your door.
Groceries, a pharmacy, a gym, a green space and a GP, all within a short walk of the Broadway, so you're not planning a trip for a pint of milk.
