We have two special connections: Ross our head of Playcentre, was 13 today! He was born on 29 February 1964.
And Eleanor Palmer, our namesake and a Tudor lady of repute , who bequeathed ‘ Fortys Field’ to the poor of the parish , died on 29 February 1558. Her gravestone is at Barnet Parish Church and we have a photo.
But that can’t be right!? 1558 isn’t a leap year!!
