It is also west of Neasden's St Raphael's Estate (separated by Tokyngton Recreation Ground and the River Brent) and north-east of Alperton (separated by the Stonebridge Park Depot and its accompanying rail tracks).

There is also a community centre within Sherrans Farm Open Space in the north of the area, close to Wembley Stadium.
