Images of Mill Hill
Images of Old Mill Hill
Mill Hill was obviously once a very beautiful ‘rural’ place and the pictures touch on aspects of Mill Hill that have now disappeared. The images are from members and MHPS archives, but most of the original images are held by the Local Studies Centre (see https://boroughphotos.org/barnet/). The images of Bittacy House and Estate are courtesy of The Baim Collection Limited and are stills from the 1948 movie ‘Night Comes Too Soon” a.k.a ‘The Ghost of Rashmon Hall’.

Images of Mill Hill
These images of Mill Hill in the 21st C. are all taken by our members. They show some of the best of our architectural heritage, and many are of buildings in the Conservation Area. The constant hope is that these images do not end up in the ‘Old Mill Hill’ category. This is what MHPS is all about.
