I'm a bit busy today, so here's a few nice tweets featuring pictures of how we like to think of Edgware

 I'm a bit busy today, so no time to write a blog. But I thought a few of you might enjoy these pictures of Edgware how we like to recall it. Thanks to my wonderful Tweeting friends.

Edgware High Street in 1930. All these buildings were demolished a few years later, when the A5 was widened. To the extreme left is the entrance to Chas Wright Ltd, a business that had been in the area for many years. @francisfrith image pic.twitter.com/zH9IGGkXQ5

Early 1900s colour-tinted postcard showing a lodge on Redhill (the A5 Edgware Road between what is now Burnt Oak & Edgware). I'm not sure where this lodge was, it may have been connected with Hendon Union Workhouse, (that became Redhill, then Edgware Hospital).

Another bit of Edgware's that disappeared not that long ago.....Rex Judd Motorcycles, who were Brooklands House, 415 Burnt Oak Broadway, just along from two other departed fixtures, The White Lion pub, and its football ground, home to Edgware FC. pic.twitter.com/9rTK3RdgYQ

I have to thank Denis @JoeMeekSociety for this one. A 1950's image showing the end of Edgware High St (the A5). Main interest is @EdgwareTownFC White Lion Ground, with the White Lion pub in front of it. This is before the arrival of the office blocks.

@c_mperman @carolvorders You might be interested in this comparison of the area around the De Havilland Aircraft factory at Stag Lane (Edgware Rd). First as it was in approx. 1920 and then after the coming of the suburbs (~late-1930s after the airfield closed) Photos BAE Systems pic.twitter.com/9Ri3K4CLRL
