North Finchley 1911

Detailed map of Finchley (N); Middx sheet 6.16. Introduction by Pamela Taylor. Covers the area from Dollis Brook on the west eastward to Friary Park in Friern Barnet, and from Christ Church Avenue northward to Woodside Lane. The Great North Road runs north-south through the centre of the map and the main interest is the busy development around it. The GNR (later Northern line) High Barnet branch is also shown, with Woodside Park station. Features include St James church, Christ Church, Dunger Place, Woodside Grange, and several farms. By 1911 the area is more completely urban, with several tramways and a tram depot off Ballards Lane. There are several directory extracts, those on the 1911 map including Derby Avenue, Friern Park, Gainsborough Road, High Road, Holden Road, Hutton Grove and Woodhouse Road.
