About the Association and Barn Hill Area
Barn Hill Residents' Association (BHRA©) was established in 1988. It is voluntary and non-political.
We invite all residents to join the Association.
The area covered by BHRA is shown on our map and can be seen in detail on our Conservation and Planning pages.
Barn Hill Estate is a green and pleasant place in Wembley, part of the Borough of Brent, in Middlesex, England. The hill is 86 metres (282 feet) at its highest point, tall by London standards as much of the conurbation is flat.
The crest of Barn Hill forms part of the 103 hectare (260 acre) Fryent Country Park. From several points on the hill the views are rural in character. As well as the city and other developed areas in the distance, there are vistas of the park's woodland, ponds and large meadows with ancient hedges.
To the west lies Harrow-on-the-Hill, in the east is the nearby Welsh Harp Reservoir with its yachts and wild fowl, and to the north can be seen the green belt where Greater London gives way to the Hertfordshire countryside.
All Barn Hill houses are within easy reach of the park and several adjoin or face it.
Below the estate is Wembley Park Station, which also serves Wembley Stadium, further to the south. The Stadium is London's premier venue for international soccer and world famous concerts. Over the new stadium is a huge arch that has become a regional landmark. The arch is even more widely visible when lit up at night.
Barn Hill lends its name to a district that elects three Brent councillors but Barnhill Ward also includes areas beyond the Estate.
