I wonder if Mountford Chemists are one of the oldest Chemists in the area? A 1932 trade directory revealed my Great Uncle, Harry Mountford, was running his Chemist shop at 16 Station Road, New Barnet. It had been a Chemist before that after finding a picture from the early 1900's. My Great Uncle retired from the business in the early 1960's but the business remained in that location with the same name until the late 80's before relocating to East Barnet Road (complete with the name) and is still there today. He also had another shop at Greenhill Parade, Great North Road which I believe is also still there!
