Finchley Fire Station, Long Lane, London N3

The symmetry of the front facade of this fine 1936 built functional municipal building has been spoiled by the addition of the roof plant and masts. Presumably originally built at the junction of Long Lane with the A406 North Circular Road to enable quick access in every direction, the road junction was closed many years ago, and the Fire Station is now at a dead end in Long Lane.
