Ramada - Hatfield
An interesting building. Built in 1933 as the 'Comet' public house adjacent to the new line of the A1 skirting Hatfield as the 'Barnet Bypass', it is a typical 1930s 'Road House'. It is Grade II listed - see http://list.historicengland.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1101036. Just out of sight of the camera in this shot is a model of the original De Havilland Comet aircraft, developed at the adjacent airfield. See Image and Image for pictures.
