More about this scene

This somewhat featureless shopping centre has developed to the north of the Tally Ho pub and Tally Ho corner, which can be seen as a multi-gabled vista stopper in this photograph. Vague echoes of C F A Voysey are to be seen in the higher building in the centre; the demolition of W E Trent's Gaumont Cinema to the south of the Tally Ho in the late 1980s was a loss to the area as a whole.

North Finchley Various Memories
We lived in North Finchley between 1966 and 1978 so I was ten in 1976 and my sister was 7. We were allowed to walk to Tally Ho corner at that age, all the way from home at Friern Watch Avenue. Memories of those forays into town, perhaps not in dateline or chronological 'shop' order, but more with nostalgic licence would include passing the very old fashioned and austere Ashbeys where our ...see more

Genealogy & Research Images

Despite over 20 years’ work on the archive, these scans have still not been individually checked and may prove to be damaged, faded, or not of sufficient quality to ever be offered in our full product range. However, if you would particularly like to buy one of these please get in touch quoting the Frith negative number,(s) the town name and size of print you would like to buy. On receipt of your enquiry our archivist will check the scan and advise you if the quality is good enough.

What is an Album?

An album is a way to save a selection of Frith photos, maps and memories that are of interest to you.

Creating an Album enables you to make short lists and then make a final selection from the album. In particular it makes ordering things like calendars much easier - simply create an Album of the 12 photos you like and then use the Album when placng your order - our order process will give you this option.

You can create as many Albums as you want, so perhaps make one for your hometown, where you live now, where your parents live now etc.
