Third Way
Third Way
Wembley, London
Third Way borders the eastern side of the Wembley estate, and originally provided access to the HM Government Pavilion. This grand structure was demolished in 1973, and the great lions that adorned its front steps are now located at Woburn Safari Park.

"The northern part of Third Way is now completely blocked off, so there isn't any access to where the Pavilion used to be any longer."
