"We hate Hillingdon Borough!" was the opening line of Barnet's version of the "Land of Hope & Glory" song in the mid-70s! Shows how far they fell. Were second in the Southern League in the 1960s.
I doubt their ground is available. It's probably doing well as a hire-out. Some clubs at this level play pre-season games there. Wealdstone played someone there first game a few years back. It was 33°c. A few players reported back overweight & were blowing early. The mild-mannered & diplomatic assistant manager was not impressed!
Someone will make $$$$ from Earlsmead. It's a question of resilience and slowly grinding away at the bureaucracy.
I greatly admire Andrew Landesberg for his persistence and tenacity in eventually getting a decent wedge from Claremont Road. I don't think many at Hendon begrudge him his money.
