This is the former Bentley Motors factory. The company had been bought by Rolls Royce in 1931 (the previous year to the date of this photo) and manufacture moved to Derby. Work here was associated with the great days of Bentley racing under the chairmanship of Woolf Barnato.

This is the farm house for Upper Oxgate Farm. The building dates from at least the 17th century and parts may be earlier. At time of writing (2018) the building is uninhabited and in poor repair.

The Main Line Railway Bridge was never known as Brent Bridge. This title went to a bridge over the River Brent at the junction of Golders Green Road and Brent Street where there was a Hotel so Called.
