The Chairman of the Council at this time was Edward Bernard Montesole (1883-1976) of East House, Moss Lane; he held the position of Chairman of Hendon RDC from 1930 to 1933.  Montesole was rural district councillor for the Pinner Village ward (1927-34) and Middlesex County Councillor for the Pinner electoral division (1933-37).  He donated the land known as Montesole Playing Fields for public use and was instrumental in persuading Hendon RDC to purchase Headstone Manor.
