Remember, people walking on snow and ice have responsibility to be careful themselves.

The road running through Hendon Central, roughly in line with the Watford Way, was called Butchers Lane. Where St John's School now stands was Paddock Farm and further up, near the top of Station Road, was Burroughs Farm. The Handmaids of Christ established the Convent of St Joseph in Burroughs House in 1882. They had a school by 1900, now St Joseph's Primary School. Butchers Lane became Queens Road after Queen Victoria's jubilee (1887).
