Greyhound Hill used to bend sharply right at the bottom of the hill, running north to become Hall Lane. The building of Watford Way buried the previous line of Hall Lane.

Looking down the hill towards Hendon Aerodrome, Hendon residents could get a free view of the aerobatic displays when they took place.
