About Cricklewood
Cricklewood is a town. Location: Brent, Greater London. Population: 65,000. Elevation: 54 m.
Cricklewood is a town in North West London, England, in the London Boroughs of Barnet and Brent. The Crown pub, now the Clayton Crown Hotel, is a local landmark and lies 5 miles (8 km) north-west of Charing Cross. Cricklewood was a small rural hamlet around Edgware Road, the Roman road which was later called Watling Street and which forms the boundary of the two boroughs that share Cricklewood. The area urbanised after the arrival of the surface and underground railways in nearby Willesden Green in the 1870s.
