Photo taken from the A1 looking along the course of the former Mill Hill East to Edgware railway line - see Image The railway would have carried straight on where the road starts to curve to the right. The road was part of the junction at the original end of the M1 motorway where it merged with the A1. It closed in 1977 with the extension of the M1 to Staples Corner. See also Image and Image
