The Heath Robinson Museum in Pinner, Harrow, showcases the work of William Heath Robinson, who lived nearby in Pinner from 1908-18. Its permanent exhibition combines original artwork with books, photographs, film & digital media, while special exhibitions bring hand-blown glass, jewellery and historic treasures into conversation with his illustrations. You can join 30 minute guided tours every Thursday, and there's a dedicated learning and events programme offering activities and workshops for children, young people and families. The shop sells items designed and handmade by acclaimed, locally-based artisans. With Hatch End station 1.4 miles away and 33 bookable places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays, it's an easy addition to a visit to the area.
