High Street, London Colney, the refurbished White Horse pub
A view of the High Street updated from Image with the "White Horse" pub recently restored back to its original name from the dreadful brewer's name of "Pear and Partridge" which it had borne for some years. This refurbishment is the result of new tenants taking over earlier this year.
Unfortunately the Highways people erected a large sign close to the pub's sign regarding restrictions for lorries over 7.5tonnes as part of an 'experimental' scheme to control such vehicles; it rather spoils the view of the pub, alas.

Dog-grooming School
An update to my picture Image showing the former Barclay's bank, then a Parish Centre for the nearby Roman Catholic church. It was sold off by the church, and has become a school to teach people to groom dogs. Seems to be quite popular.

Our Lady of Walsingham Church Centre - former Barclays Bank
The former Barclays Bank on the corner of London Colney High Street and White Horse Lane. Vacated by the bank around 1990, it was bought by the Roman Catholic parish of Our Lady of Walsingham in 1995 and refurbished as their Church Centre. The church is about 150 yards away in Heseldine Road.
(One of the local schools is advertising their Christmas Fair in a few days time on the railings in front of the Centre!)
Update July 2015: Sold off by the church, the building is now a dog grooming school - see Image for a November 2017 view.

Cast iron milestone plate on High Street, London Colney
Although on a stone using the standard distance format, using a metal sign would be one of the earliest official road direction signs as well, having been carved onto the stone directly for far longer previously. It's probably Victorian, and the early end by both the design and spelling of Barnett as that had become Barnet by the time the railway came.
