Pinner Green is a small area of Pinner, in the north-west of the London Borough of Harrow, 13.2 miles north-west of Charing Cross. It is a suburban area mostly occupied by family houses and flats, with a small parade of independent shops, a Tesco supermarket and a modern Shell forecourt.
The main feature of Pinner Green is the Montesole playing fields, a large open green with a court with facilities to play tennis, football and basketball. Pinner Cricket Club plays its games at Montesole Playing Fields and has been established since 1835.
A high, but rarely steep, wooded escarpment Grim's Ditch or Dyke starts at the northern edge of Pinner Green and continues to Stanmore. Its remaining ancient earthworks today end short of Stanmore, at Harrow Weald.
