This is the roundabout which has junction 1 for the M1 motorway on the left just out of shot, and then a second roundabout joining with the A5 the other side of the railway arches. Originally this was a crossroads with a constant jam as you would expect, and the roundabouts were built in the 70s with Brent Cross shopping centre and the new extension to the M1 from Mill Hill. The motorway junction was built on the site of the Hendon greyhound stadium which closed around the end of the 60s.
