Wealdstone: Former driving school site
Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 1 Dec 2010
If you look at satellite imagery currently available online you can see the layout of the driving school as it was, complete with road junctions, roundabouts, pedestrian crossings and even a ramp for practising hill starts. Today it lies derelict and only a couple of forlorn traffic lights and a leaning Belisha Beacon post bear silent witness to its past. Minutes of a local council meeting in 2004 refer to it as closed so it is at least 6 years since it was last used.
