Sudbury is an area of north west London, England.
Sudbury is an historical area having once extended from the 'South Manor- Sudbury' (thought to have been on Harrow Hill) to the area that is now known as Wembley Central. Much of the land that once formed Sudbury Common until the 1930s has now been developed as a relatively green residential suburb of London.
The area is served by one station on the Piccadilly Line, Sudbury Town tube station.
[edit] Politics
The area is represented on Brent London Borough Council by three Liberal Democrats: Paul Lorber, Chandubhai Patel and Robert Wharton. Lorber, Patel and Wharton were first elected in 2002 and held onto their seats in the 2006 local elections. Lorber is the first Liberal Democrat leader of the council.
