Situation

Locally, residents are able to enjoy both Broomfield Park and Conway Road Recreation Ground; two outstanding parks. Southgate, Palmers Green and Cannon Hill offer local shopping facilities and amenities. Southgate London Underground Station (Piccadilly Line) and Palmers Green B.R Station are the two closest stations and provide regular services into Central London.

In terms of the history of the area, Southgate was predominantly developed in the 1930s: largish semi-detached houses were built on the hilly former estates (Walker, Osidge, Monkfrith, etc.) following increased transport development.

In 1933, the North Circular Road was completed through Edmonton and Southgate, and also in 1933, the London Underground Piccadilly line was extended from Arnos Grove (where it had reached the previous year), through Southgate tube station, on to Enfield West (now known as Oakwood). This unleashed a building boom, and by 1939 the area had become almost fully developed.
