<br/>Church located in the junction of the A1000 and the A411 at the top of Barnet Hill. A lady rests from shopping in the churchyard on a warm spring day. Other seats in the churchyard are occupied by people also enjoying the warm sun.

<br/>View of this Barnet landmark Church from Wood Street. The combination of flint and checkerboard decoration is very attractive.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>Terraced houses staggered to round a corner on Salisbury Road. The building on the right appears to be a later addition, not matching the other houses in style.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>In front of this house, in February 1895, Birt Acres made one of the first British films.

Dist:0.2km north<br/>A large public house on the corner of Fitzjohn Avenue and Barnet High Street. I believe it used to be called the Red Lion.

Dist:0.3km north<br/>An array of shops on the east side of Barnet High Street, just south of the junction with the A1081. Many of these buildings are quite old and the Woolwich in the centre clearly has a previous life as a public house - note the McMullens Ales and Stouts advert on the side of the upper storey.

Dist:0.3km north<br/>Located on the High Street, all manner of memorabilia is available within for fans and collectors. With the end of the season approaching, there are some good offers on the replica kit.

Dist:0.3km north<br/>Located on Victors Way, this is the Bentley service and sales centre, whilst beyond is the Land Rover section. The painter-decorator on the left was watching traffic for a colleague while he moved their ladders.

Dist:0.3km north<br/>View of the two plaques detailing the history of these almshouses.
©Martin Addison
Dist:0.3km north<br/>These six almshouses were gifted by John Garrett, a London Merchant Taylor (spelling taken from the plaque visible on the end of the building). They were built in 1731 and subsequently renovated twice, in 1902 and again in 1982.

Dist:0.3km north<br/>Looking down from the junction with victors Way. The nearest houses, on the left, are original whilst those lower down are recent additions.

Dist:0.3km north<br/>The public house sits on Union Street at the junction with Wood Street. This is a very busy mini-roundabout with through traffic along Wood Street merging with traffic from the carparks behind Barnet High Street.
