Friern Barnet & District Local History Society

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Friern Barnet & District Local History Society is a group devoted to the history of the Friern Barnet area of North London and its neighbouring areas of North Finchley, New Southgate, Whetstone, and South Friern.[1] The society was formed in 1990 by John Donovan, who lived in the area for nearly 30 years. The first public meeting was held at the former Friern Barnet Town Hall in September 2000. The society sponsors the Friern Barnet Photo Archive.[2]
