"In 1741 Sir Jeremy Sambrook erected an obelisk to the north of Hadley Green at the site where the Earl of Warwick fell in the Battle of Barnet. Cottages and inns formed in a group here and became known as Hadley Highstone."
I love exploring the wealth of parkland in Barnet and in particular, Brunswick Park!

With its church and delightful mock-Tudor buildings, Pinner's High Street is a picturesque place for a stroll.
