Care home help

Hi

I am trying to trace a relative wo was in the care system from the late 1950's onwards, a care home he went into was called Peter Pan House at Warwick Road, New Barnet. I think it was a place for children who was classed as ineducable in those days. I've done a google and many other services to try to find a contact address of any kind. I just wondered if anyone on here could help or even remember it ?

Here's a recent event which mentions it, but newer group names are also used here.
Perhaps using one of the more recent ones will lead you to the information you need.

The person you seek might now be termed a 'vulnerable adult' so getting information might not be easy and they must be protected.
We traced such a person though, in another part of the country, so it might still be possible.
