Best Nature and Wildlife Areas in Mackerye End

"Sprawling Hampstead Heath, with its rolling woodlands and meadows, feels a million miles away – despite being approximately four – from the City of London. Covering 320 hectares, most of it woods, hills and meadows, it's home to about 180 bird species, 23 species of butterflies, grass snakes, bats and a rich array of flora. It's a wonderful place for a ramble, especially to the top of Parliament Hill, which offers expansive views across the city."

"London has a lot of the world’s great pizza cultures represented, but it’s yet to really delve into the Chicago deep dish with much gusto. Enter Japes: a Chicago deep dish-focused restaurant in Soho. What to expect: The best thing here by a country mile is the deep dish pizzas, which are like oozing tarts full of thick red sauce and glorious toppings."

A church that is open for worship, there is regular church service held here each and every week. This includes your more standard services, as well as evening worships and children’s services too."
