  • Totteridge and Whetstone station was originally known, I think, as Totteridge. It was on the Great Northern Railway's branch line to High Barnet. That's a Great Northern 4-4-2 tank engine with a rake of suburban carriages at the northbound platform [The photograph is orientated towards the east]. The railway was subsequently incorporated into the London Underground system and now forms part of the Northern Line from Morden, it appears

  • The long double galleried building beside the railway was a horse hospital, I believe for Pickfords, to rest their cart horses. They would arive by train and graze on whetstone strays in the foreground. The building still stands (just) in a dilapidated condition. The coal yards beside the railway are now the car park for Totteridge & Whetstone Station. In the distance are the greenhouses of Sweets Nurseries, now the Sweets Way estate. Just visible in the very far distance is the STC factory at New southgate.
