from Wikipedia: Hendon Aerodrome: In November 1916, the War Office commandeered the flying schools, after which the aerodrome trained 490 pilots. Claude Grahame-White and other members of the Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS) mounted a night defence of London in 1915, constituting the very first aerial defence of London. |

The road that runs left/right across the lower third of this photograph is Aerodrome Road. The main north/south railway line runs down the right hand side. The land and buildings south of Aerodrome Road became the training school for the Metropolitan Police. To the left of the oval is the flying club building which was in use as the canteen and residential accommodation for police recruits up to the 1970s. Immediately behind this building, are the hangers and workshops which were subsequently used as offices and classrooms. Into the 1970s Aerodrome Road continued to be a "Ministry of Defence Road" and was closed to the public on one day a year to retain its status as a private road. This was usually done on Christmas Day to minimise disruption to the local community. The police estate has been redeveloped and none of the original buildings remain. The area north of Aerodrome Road is now the location of the RAF Museum Hendon and a large housing estate. |
