The character of St John's Wood
Wellington Road and Finchley Road, both part of the A41, carry the bulk of through traffic and can be slow at peak times, while the residential grid behind St John's Wood High Street is calm and largely free of restrictions outside match days. The High Street itself has short-stay bays that fill quickly. Abbey Road, a few streets to the north, draws visitors year-round for the zebra crossing, which adds pedestrian activity a car should allow for.
- Match days at Lord's need a collection point away from the ground — we agree this in advance.
- St John's Wood High Street's short-stay bays fill quickly, so the car often waits on a side street.
- Abbey Road's zebra crossing draws pedestrian crowds that a car should allow extra time for.
- The residential grid away from Wellington Road is generally calm outside event days.
