    Is there no end to the contenders for Village Idiot today?
    What British architecture do you mean?
    Victorian redbrick?
    Edwardian?
    30's art deco?
    Council tower block?
    Norman Foster/Richard Rogers modernist?
    Hard Brexit now!

        Well those green onion domes dont sit well in the surrounds do they.
        A round Mosque with minarets might sit well in the city of London with its fine examples of ancient and modern but would stick out like a sore thumb next to the village green.

              Not too sure the villagers will prefer the muezzin to the sound of the church bells either.

                  Thats the one. Do you think it looks well amongst the houses of Brent? Does brent have a fine tradition of ancient and modern architecture, even middle Eastern or Islamic design or is it full of terraces and back to back red brick and sand stone houses?

                      I bet the streets are safer around a Mosque in the UK than anywhere else.
