The Thursday Local News Roundup - 10/10/2019

Every Thursday, the Barnet Eye takes a look at the local news stories that have caught our eye. Here's our pick.

Huge Mill Hill Flytip in the news

If you caught ITV London news last night, then you'd have seen the appalling story of the UK's largest flytip at the back of Pentavia retail park. This is a huge, rotting, fly and rat infested pile of rubbish, some of which contains asbestos and other dangerous items. The land is owned by TFL and the Highways agency. We believe that they should make every effort to identify the source and prosecute anyone who uses illegal flytippers. That is the only way to stop this



Hadley FC out of the FA cup

A great run in the FA Cup came to an end for Hadley FC on Saturday. They lost 3-0 away at Havant  and Waterlooville, a team several rungs higher in the league structure. The team had amazing support from the travelling fans. If you missed out on the fun, why not join us on the terraces on Saturday!


Marsh Drive residents update

The residents of Marsh Drive, the last block standing on the West Hendon estate are suffering appalling conditions as the building has been allowed to deteriorate. Whilst most reasonable people would be appalled, the leader of Barnet Council, Daniel Thomas has told them that this is all perfectly satisfactory. We disagree.


Stop School Cuts nursery campaign update

The Stop School cuts campaign have started a petition to oppose cuts to nursery services in Barnet. We urge you to take a look and support this.

Celebration of 40 years of Mill Hill Music Complex

Mill Hill Music Complex, Londons leading independent music studio complex is 40 years old this year. They cordially invite you to the Adam and Eve pub on Friday 1st November for an evening of music and fun, and it's all free.
