The Bald Faced Stag pub sits at the right on the junction, and East Finchley tube station is in the distance. Looking south across the major road junction in the grid square.

Recent, dispersing clouds and early morning sun combine to give an interesting light effect in this shot of Park Hall Road from Fortis Green.

Dist:0.1km north<br/>Looking towards the junction with the A1000, High Road, at East Finchley. The 134 bus on the right is a stranger to these parts, being on diversion due to a burst watermain on Muswell Hill. The bus in the queue of traffic in the centre is a 43, also on diversion. It was a very cold night and the roofs of the shops and the Bald Faced Stag pub, across the junction in the centre of the photo, are white with frost.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>Early morning traffic queues on the A1000 at the junction with Fortis Green. Overnight rain has left the road surface wet. On the right is one of the continental style advertising hoardings, illuminated at this time of the day.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>Traditional barbershop that has seen better days. I used to get my hair cut here when I was at school, a very long time ago! Not much has changed in 40 years. I bet the barbers still ask 'anything for the weekend sir?' Planning permission was granted in January 2007 for Lincoln Parade to be redeveloped as housing, so I wonder how much longer the shops will be here.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>A 134 waits to turn into Fortis Green from the High Road in East Finchley. The 134 and 43 routes were temporarily diverted due to a burst watermain on Muswell Hill. Behind are another 134, 2 43's and a 263 on its normal route to Barnet Hospital.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>No sooner have the gas contractors finished their work than the water contractors dig up the road. And...No sooner have they finished than the gas contractors are back again! Temporary traffic control at the junction of East End Road and High Road. Fortis Green is opposite.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>On Lincoln Road, adjacent to the High Road in East Finchley. This small group of shops in a generally rundown condition are finally undergoing redevelopment. The shop fronts have been removed revealing previous ownership in the case of the closest. This was a small estate agents in its latter days, but was once Finchley Pet Stores. The 4th shop along was once a barbers - see [[375031]]. It's a wet day and the workers can be seen sheltering inside the 5th shop.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>Looking towards East Finchley station from the junction with East End Road and Fortis Green. Temporary lights are holding traffic back some way short of the junction. This was once part of the Great North Road.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>One of East Finchley's county roads seen from Durham Road. At the other end is the High Road. The high rise block in the distance is on Prospect Ring.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>Closed shops, but a member of bar staff can be seen enjoying a cigarette in the doorway of Madden's public house at around 12:15.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>Sitting on the corner of the High Road and East End Road, the pub has just been refurbished and now resembles a pint of stout with a very large head. The garden is full of customers on a warm June evening.
