2 is Wembley Park. "On the Up" refers to a TV show starring Dennis "write the theme toon, sing the theme toon" Waterman from the early 90's. "Just the One" was a catchphrase in this show, a response to Mrs. Wembley, played by Joan Sims.

I'll guess for number 4...............Latimer Road? I remember the doctor father & son programme with Nigel Havers (God knows how I was only about 5 when it was on).

I'll take a pretty wild stab in the dark and say that 1's Manor House...
I'll also say that 3 has something to do with Bridge...
