Dist:0.2km<br/>A 210 bus passes Finchley United Synagogue - also known as Kinloss Synagogue. Charter way, the road in this view, does not normally see bus services but for the duration of the redesign of Henlys Corner in 2011, the 102 bus route has been using this road to accomplish a turn onto the A406 from the A598 on its run from Brent cross to Edmonton via Golders Green and Finchley. From 22nd of October 2011, as a result of work by English Heritage which closed Spaniards Road, the 210 route also had to travel via Henlys Corner and Charter Way. Here we see an Alexander Dennis Enviro 400 vehicle of Metroline negotiating Charter way as part of the three week diversion of the route.

Dist:0.2km<br/>A large synagogue seating 1350 people. Taken on a Saturday, the synagogue was evident from black coated worshippers walking home in the streets around. A constituent of the United Synagogue, built in 1967 to replace one built in 1935. At the corner of Kinloss Gardens and Charter Way - at the A598 A406 road junction.

Dist:0.3km<br/>This is known locally as the naked lady, as you'd probably expect. It celebrates the French victory over the German army at the battle of The Marne in 1914.

Dist:0.3km<br/>The mortal remains of Henlys Garage. Rubble, 2 discarded trucks, a skip and some shopping trolleys hide behind boarding. Once a thriving business that gave its name to a major road junction.

Dist:0.3km<br/>Metroline buses on the 460 and 82 routes navigate their way in a downpour through the sea of cones marking out the current traffic pattern at Henlys Corner during its rebuild.

Dist:0.3km<br/>Work of the French sculptor Emile Guillaume, the statue was gifted to Finchley by Lord Rothermere in 1927. Located just to the north of the A406 at Henlys corner, bus passengers wishing to get off at the adjacent stop would ask for 'the Naked Lady' when purchasing their ticket. Passengers travelling along the North Circular, on the other hand would ask for 'Henlys Corner'. The joys of Fare Stages, now a thing of the past. Finchley Synagogue is just visible in the trees to the right of the plinth.
