Visiting

Critchley & Simmons released an album titled Ponders End in 2017, inspired by the area where they first met. Musician Jah Wobble was inspired to write his (2005) album Mu by his experiences in the Lea Valley and Ponders End. "Ponders End Allotments Club" is a track from the (1975) Chas and Dave album One Fing 'n' Annuver.
