TPL239 on the 460 passes the junction with Granville Road with a service for Willesden. Compare this 2010 view with Image taken in 1976. Gardens have been replaced by off-road parking. The lamp post has been replaced by a new one and the old trolleybus pole which carried the signs for Finchley Memorial Hospital and Finchley Reform Synagogue has been removed. The sign for the synagogue is now located at the junction with Montrose Crescent - behind the bus. The house on the right of the photo has become the local Conservative Party office - note the sticker in the window - (I don't think it was in 1976) And, of course, the bus is a Plaxton bodied Trident rather than an AEC Routemaster.
