Great local Photo's from 2001

Nick Cook has shared his Instagram photo's of Mill Hill from 2001 on the Inside Mill Hill Facebook page. These are well worth a look. If anyone else has any old or new pics, let us know. We have an amazing neighbourhood, so lets not be shy in sharing it.

The picture to the right shows St Josephs college tower illuminated, as part of the Millenium festivities. Wouldn't it be great to see this done on a more permanant basis. It is a truly amazing landmark and our view is that we should use this as one of our keynote landmarks.

Do you own a company who may be interested in helping to sponsor such a project? Let us know.
