  • Friern Barnet Newsletter
    Friern Barnet Newsletter Published by Friern Barnet & District Local History Society Issue Number 47 December 2011 A CELEBRATION AND A WAKE by David Berguer On Sunday 9 October 2011 a Centenary Festival Eucharist was held at St John the Evangelist Church in Friern Barnet Road. Amongst the attendees were the Bishop of London, the Rt Revd and the Rt Hon Dr Richard Chartres KCVO; the Deputy Lord Lieutenant for Barnet, Martin Russell; The Mayor of Barnet, Councillor Lisa Rutter and the MP for Chipping Barnet, Theresa Villiers. The church was designed by the noted Victorian architect John Loughborough Pearson whose many other ecclesiastical works included Truro Cathedral, St John’s Cathedral in Brisbane, Australia and St Augustine’s Church in Kilburn where Prebendary Frederick Hall was assistant Curate for a time, before moving to Friern Barnet. He was obviously impressed by Pearson’s work and commissioned him to build a church for the rapidly expanding population of Friern Barnet. Hall had visited a ruined Cistercian monastery in Heisterbach, Germany and he asked Pearson to design the eastern end of his new church in a similar style. The foundation stone of St John’s was laid in 1890 and the church was completed on 10 October 1911. In this view from the early 1900s the distinctive eastern end is clearly visible; it is now hidden by trees 1 A more sober event took place at South Friern Library on 26 October 2011 when the final meeting of the Friends of Barnet Borough Libraries took place. The Friends was formed in 1991 and in the next twenty years they managed, through donations and subscriptions, to raise enough money to provide coffee machines and children’s play areas in all of Barnet’s libraries.

All these developments are near transport hubs.
