About The Author

Simon Pollock

Simon Pollock was born and raised in the suburbs of London. He started the Instagram account @LondonSuburbia in 2022. It began as a hobby and grew into a way to tell the overlooked stories of the people and buildings that make up 95% of the city. In his spare time, he enjoys exploring exotic locations like Pinner, Chigwell, Bromley and Dagenham and has discovered that amongst the rows of 1930s semi-detached houses, there are architectural marvels to rival South Beach in Miami. This is his first book.
