Closed John's shoe repairers on Manor Park Road, East Finchley
This shop was here for most of my life till I left the area in 1994, and has just had to close since the current owner, who took over from Mr Belcher 30 years ago had to give up due to ill health. My family had all their shoes repaired here since about 1965. No one knows its fate now. Here is the story from the local paper.

Cricket Row
Built on the site of the one-time Summers Brown and Sons cricket bat factory. The factory was a conversion of a 19th century house called Glencroft. The bats manufactured here were used by England cricketer Jack Hobbs - hence the name of the side road, Hobbs Green. Joack Hobbs put the Australians to the sword with a Summers Brown Force bat in the 1924/25 Ashes series. Although England lost the series, Hobbs came away with an average of 60 runs per innings. I have been unable to ascertain when the factory closed, but the houses date to the early 1990's

Church Lane Bridge, East Finchley & 1959 Tube Stock
A Northern Line 1959 stock train is about to pass under Church Lane bridge, East Finchley, as it heads southbound on a Kennington via Charing Cross service on a very warm and sunny day on 15 September 1996. This part of the line is on the former LNER railway to Mill Hill East & High Barnet; the Mill Hill East branch originally ran to Edgware via Mill Hill (The Hale). The line remained open for goods until 29th February 1964 when it closed completely.
