You have The Swan With Two Necks, 1147 High Road, Whetstone on this website. You have The Swan & Pyramids in 1920 also at 1147 High Road, and you say these two pubs are the same. But on the 1939 census The Swan and Pyramids are at 975 High Road, North Finchley. If I compare the two pics these two pubs certainly do not look as if they are same. Even the chimneys are in different places.
