Place

What is a "place"? A neighborhood, district, region, sub-township? Is it legally separate, or just colloquially considered separate? "Place" could mean a street corner or a pub. Isn't there a better term for what Brondesbury is? -- ESP 06:28 20 Jul 2003 (UTC)

Related to why that was put by an earlier editor, the reason is TfL define station names. These in turn towards Inner London (Inner London is strictly speaking east of the station and also of the Edgware Road) are invaribly in modern usage what people consider the area they live in (partially or wholly) to be. Jokingly they put Kilburn tube station north of and so closer to Brondesbury manor than 200 metres away Brondesbury station which is closer to the linear settlement heart of Kilburn. This is pathetic so yes, if you are pompously addicted to manor terms you will say wherever you live in Kilburn north of its centre that you live in Brondesbury even though Kilburn's station is closer to you; on the other hand if you are fixated by modern trends and the nearest tube station you will say you are in Kilburn like most photographs do of the area (none of the streets say Brondesbury I note in the Wikimedia Commons) and only if you live right within the 100-metre radius catchment of Brondesbury might you say you are in Brondesbury but the road there is mainly Kilburn High Road so again you might as well just say Kilburn. It is a joke, the stations should simply be reversed in name. If Brondesbury is a place the tube operators are doing their best to deny its existence.- Adam37 Talk 10:58, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
