Area Feature
Hendon is a lively, and diverse suburb located in the north London borough of Barnet. It is an ideal location for travelling to other parts of the city, with excellent transport links, plenty of amenities, and good quality housing.
The area is steeped in ancient history, and was formerly a parish of Middlesex before it got absorbed into London.
Due to its cultural history, the area has a number of historical landmarks, and plenty of places of interest.
These include the RAF Museum, police training college, the Welsh Harp, Hendon Hall Hotel (where FA Cup Final teams would often stay), Middlesex University and Brent Shopping centre.
History
Hendon is derived from the word 'Hendun' meaning 'at the highest hill'. Archaeological remains from ancient Rome have been found there by the Hendon and District Archaeological Society and other researchers.
In the 1800s, Hendon saw the arrival of the Midland Railway and the Great Northern Railways.
It also formally became known as an urban district in 1894.
However, the area really began to transform with the arrival of the Northern Line of the underground in the 1920s.
During that era, major developments,and demographic changes gradually saw it become a part of London, when it grew more industrialised, although there are pockets of countryside.
Historically, Hendon has been a major centre for the manufacturing industry, which included motor and aviation works.
During the 1930s, another major redevelopment occurred when the civil parish of Edgware was added to Hendon.
