Abbey Road, St John's Wood, London NW8

This is the location of the famous zebra crossing from The Beatles' Abbey Road album cover, just outside the Abbey Road Studios at number three. Take off your shoes and socks and get someone to photograph you holding up the traffic while you're pretending to be Paul McCartney.

The Abbey Road Studio is still a working studio for musicians and provides a centre for film scores. It also has one of the largest collections of microphones in the UK.
