All residents have now left the Mary Feilding Guild care home in Highgate.
The final pensioner packed their bags on Thursday (May 6) after the new owner decided to close the home, which has been renamed Highgate House.
Highgate Care took over from Mary Feilding Guild in March and immediately announced it was to close the facility, giving 16 residents aged between 85 and 104 until the end of May to move on.
The closure drew widespread criticism including from residents, their families, local MP Catherine West, Highgate councillor Liz Morris, the Highgate Society, the Highgate Neighbourhood Forum, local church leaders, and elderly care experts.
