Barnet High Street

I’m a lifelong Barnet resident who treasures our community. I’ve begun making images of some of our local shops and businesses, and the people working in them. I think it’s important to record what we have and maybe get some insights into what our High Street could be. I am hoping to organise an exhibition in the local area and I will make the images available on this website. Our High Street is changing faster than ever, with new shops and businesses sitting alongside those established for many years. Commercial and rural sites are being redeveloped into homes and the mix of people is becoming more diverse. Our High Street has a special history and potentially an exciting vision for the future. I want to capture both. If you want to be part of this project please reach me via the Contact page or email me at simon.hollins@icloud.com . In the meantime, please check out my Gallery at the top of the page to see some of my previous work.
