Chandos Recreation Ground
A name linked with the history of the area. In the 18th century nearby Canons Park was the home of James Brydges, Duke of Chandos. The name can be traced back to a village called Candos in Normandy.
The title ceased to exist in 1789 when the last Duke of Chandos died with no heir.

Old sign at the end of St Davids Drive, Edgware
This is a lesson for sign detectives. Firstly, it is not a road sign as they do not apply to persons but pedestrians when not referring to vehicles. It appears to be in the style of pre-Worboys from a distance, but being confirmed by the wording as privately made (this is the private rear entrance to the playing fields used for football training, and now The Hive, temporary home of Barnet FC) the letters are a random font chosen by the signmakers, stuck on, and proven unofficial as the three bars on the capital E are equal, while pre-Worboys had a shorter one in the middle. The R is also totally different with a long tail, and may well have been made as recently as the 80s and is just badly weathered and badly made.
