"The daughter of Horatio Nelson and Lady Emma Hamiliton was called Horatia Nelson and lived in Pinner from 1860 until the end of her life in 1881. Her grave is in Paines Lane Cemetery."
With its church and delightful mock-Tudor buildings, Pinner's High Street is a picturesque place for a stroll.

There are some lovely places to eat along Pinner's High Street and some charming gift shops too.

Lucy Dixon + David Gordon Trio
Sensational singer and tap dancer Lucy Dixon, former star of the global hit show Stomp [https://www.stomp.co.uk] is travelling from her home in Paris to play for us at Oxhey Sounds. She is equally at ease in the swing tradition, as on her album Lulu's Back in Town [https://lucydixon.bandcamp.com/album/lulus-back-in-town] as in the eclectic world of songwriters such as Kurt Weill, Fran Landesman, David Bowie, Thelonious Monk, Fats Waller, Leonard Cohen and even a reworking from 'Winterreise' by Schubert. Together with David Gordon Trio their show is full of tasty groove, humour, deep emotion - and Lucy's tap-dancing adds an extra dimension to the music. I was blown away by Lucys unique style, so utterly captivating and more focused and intense than ever! The programme, superbly enhanced by the brilliant trio, took us all on a very special journey. Charles Owen, classical pianist Weills sweeter melodies were given consummate renditions by Dixon her singing of the bittersweet 'Surabaya Johnny' will linger long in my memory Nick Hammond, Author of The Power of Sound and Song in Early Modern Paris Lucy is sensational. Completely riveting on stage, so comfortable, I loved every second of it and Im so glad finally to have seen and heard her. Cant wait for another show! Roger Vignoles, pianist and accompanist David doesnt play many notes, but the notes that he does play are almost the selection of a genius.
