The course of the former Mill Hill East to Edgware railway line near The Meads
See Image The section of the former line from here as far as Dean's Lane is now the Mill Hill Old Railway Nature Reserve. In happier, pre Covid-19 times, it was open 10am-4pm on Saturdays and Sundays. As you can see from my photos of the rest of the former railway line west of Bunn's Lane https://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=112315803 all of it is effectively a nature reserve.

The Meads
The Meads forms part of the Watling Estate built on land that used to be Goldbeaters Farm between 1924 and 1930. The estate was designed by George Forrest. The line of the housing around a central open space closely follows a pre-existing field boundary and the development may have taken its name from the use of that field as a hay meadow. The open grass in the centre of the estate makes a good place for the children to play football during the half-term holiday.
The road on the left at this point recalls the farm that the estate is built on being called Goldbeaters Grove.
