EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Blend of Tradition and Modernity: College Farm, Finchley, North London, circa 1900s - The Entrance to Express Dairy Co. for Teas and Refreshments 2. Nestled in the heart of North London, College Farm in Finchley stands as a testament to the rich history of agriculture and community that once thrived in this bustling urban area. This evocative photograph, taken circa 1900s, captures the entrance to the Express Dairy Co., where visitors could enjoy a respite from their daily routines with a cup of tea and refreshments. 3. The scene is set by the picturesque, tree-lined road, which leads the eye towards the quaint, red-brick farmhouse and the welcoming sign of the Express Dairy Co. The Edwardian-era architecture of the farmhouse, with its intricate detailing and elegant chimneys, exudes a sense of warmth and nostalgia. 4. The farm itself, with its rolling hills and verdant fields, is a stark contrast to the urban surroundings of North London. The farm's livestock, including cows, can be seen in the background, contributing to the farm's self-sufficient nature. 5. The Express Dairy Co. sign, with its bold, black letters and inviting arrow, beckons passersby to take a break and indulge in a moment of relaxation. The addition of the words "Teas and Refreshments" further emphasizes the farm's commitment to providing a welcoming and hospitable environment for its visitors. 6. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where the simple pleasures of farm life and the comforting rituals of tea and refreshments brought people together. The scene at College Farm in Finchley serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our history and the connections we make with the places and people that shape our lives.
