Anyone suggest anywhere around North London hopefully dark enough to shoot some stars/Milky Way?

The only time I've ever seen the Milky Way in Britain was when I stayed in a small village just outside Dartmouth.
Nowhere within 30 miles of London will allow you a clear view of the sky.
Looking at those "light pollution" maps, it strikes me that one area in southern England that might give a clear view of the sky is somewhere on Salisbury Plain, but its still a 60 -70 mile drive from London.
It would be annoying to drive all that way, only to find it was cloudy.
It's still 70 miles from London.Great Fen near Holme in Cambridgeshire is a Milky Way class dark sky site http://www.greatfen.org.uk/dark-skies-great-fen-0
South of Peterborough off the A1, been there for a stroll during the day a few times, must have a look there one night.

The comment was not directed specifically at you.Yes it is, but I didn't say otherwise so not sure why you are telling me as though I was disputing that fact
its more convenient from North London though, straight up the A1 or M11
