"IN 1923, Astronomer and broadcaster, Sir Patrick Moore was born in Pinner. Along with being famous for the Sky at Night, Moore was a key figure behind the 1976 April Fool's joke on BBC Radio 2, that urged its listeners, owing to a freak astronomical event, if they all jumped at 9:47am, they would experience weightlessness!"
With its church and delightful mock-Tudor buildings, Pinner's High Street is a picturesque place for a stroll.
