The pedestrian traffic is light on a Maundy Thursday afternoon. The young plane trees will give some shade once they come into leaf.

Vent pipe, Chandos Avenue, Whetstone
Either a vent pipe or a headless lamp-post, but given its height, probably the former.

The Green Man
Rebuilt in 1830, the name suggests that this was once a public house and there is a reference to it existing as the Red Lion by 1521. It was catering for waggoners by 1800 and is recorded as having pleasure grounds until the beginning of the 20th century, (information from British History Online). It was converted into a garage and currently carries out services, tyre changes, exhaust and clutch replacements. It used to supply petrol as well and the location of the pumps is still visible as a slightly raised area on the plinth in front of the shop, (just left of centre).

A number of shops and offices in Whetstone are set further back from the A1000 than the surrounding premises. Here, the HSBC bank advertises its presence. The bollards mark the boundary of its property.

Finished for the day
A Michael Gerson truck returns to their Whetstone base in Downland Close. The company has been specialising in overseas removals since 1961. It being Maundy Thursday, one hopes that the driver has indeed 'finished for the day'.

St. Margarets Avenue
This avenue runs from the High Road to Totteridge Lane. It has a sharp left turn at the High Road end, seen here, and an 'S' bend close to the junction with Totteridge Lane. With congestion being a problem on the High Road, this is a popular rat run.
