This leafy English landscape with its common, village green, ponds and idyllic rural walks was in earlier times the hunting grounds of royalty. Now it is home to famous and discerning residents who appreciate its perfect combination of country charm and proximity to central London. This is country living at its best without leaving town. As its name suggests, Totteridge lies on a ridge between the valleys of the Dollis Brook and Folly Brook with spectacular views over London. In past centuries the surrounding meadowlands provided rich grazing for local livestock and the hay to feed London’s horses. Many of these beautiful meadows are still in evidence today. Gentlemen farmers grew wealthy providing for London’s needs and used their profits to create several notable estates with elegant manors set in their own parklands. With the coming of the railway in 1872 graceful Victorian and Edwardian mansion houses were built around the old village. A number of the mansion houses, which are now so sought after, are a legacy of those times. In 1940 the London Underground reached Totteridge connecting the country to the heart of the city in around 30 minutes. Yet fortunately Totteridge’s rural charm was preserved by the Town and Country Planning Act which created the ‘Green Belt’, protecting residents by limiting London’s urban expansion into the surrounding countryside. Today, Totteridge Common lies in a Conservation Area surrounded by meadows and woodland and close to the Totteridge Fields Nature Reserve. To the east lies the village green, St Andrew’s Church and the picturesque village pub. The cricket, tennis and nearby golf club complete the picture of a perfect English village. 5 location is everything As many celebrities have discovered this discreetly affluent neighbourhood within easy reach of the City and West End is the ideal place to live, play and raise a family. Totteridge is delightfully green and leafy and provides wonderful recreation and sports amenities, together with a wide selection of shops and restaurants nearby. The charming home ground and clubhouse of Totteridge Millhillians Cricket Club, one of North London’s top cricket clubs is on the village green. Close by is Totteridge Tennis Club with floodlit hard and clay courts, while Oakleigh Park Lawn Tennis and Squash Club offers tennis, squash, a gym and indoor swimming pool. For horse-riders, there are equestrian and carriage driving centres and stables in the vicinity. Golfers can take their pick from a number of nearby golf clubs with beautifully appointed clubhouses. Nearest is the South Herts Golf Club, set in 150 acres of undulating parkland. Also close by is the North Middlesex Golf Club with its elegant 19th century clubhouse overlooking the 18th green. A ten minute car drive reaches Finchley Golf Club with its fast and pristine greens. For shopping, the area is home to some of the best high street stores, such as Waitrose and Marks & Spencer, together with a selection of independent shops that include an excellent butcher in New Barnet and florist by Totteridge and Whetstone underground station. Brent Cross shopping centre is a short drive away. A host of restaurants, bistros, bars and gastro-pubs pubs serve the area, with influences ranging from mediterranean to South American. Totteridge has its own characterful dining pubs, the Orange Tree and the Rising Sun. Within easy reach are some of the best private and state schools in Britain including Harrow School, Haberdashers Aske School, Mill Hill School and its preparatory school Belmont, North London Collegiate, Henrietta Barnett School, Highgate School, University College School (UCS), Aldenham School, Queen Elizabeth Boys School, Channing School and Immanuel College. Access to the City and the West End is via mainline and underground train services . Totteridge & Whetstone underground station on the Northern Line reaches central London in around 30 minutes, while trains from Oakleigh Park and New Barnet stations arrive at Moorgate in similar time. By road the A1 and national motorway network, including the M1 and M25, are easily reached. 6 the world’s best shopping and entertainment in your town London is spread out before you. The West End, the shopping, the theatres, restaurants, museums and art galleries are but a short distance away. The shopping opportunities are endless. Take a trip to Knightsbridge and you’ll find Harrods, the world’s most famous department store, and the chic couture shops of Sloane Street. Continue onwards to the heart of Chelsea and browse the fashion boutiques in the King’s Road. Oxford Street offers Selfridges, a department store of international repute. From there a walk down Bond Street reveals the top designer labels, fine art and antiques, fabulous jewellery and luxury goods, and retailers with proud heritages that include Asprey, holders of the Royal Warrant since Queen Victoria’s reign. The West End theatres provide a wonderful opportunity to see some of the best shows in town. The West End is the largest theatre district in the world, with many major international stars treading the boards night after night. No other city can boast the same variety and quality of theatrical performances. Whether before or after the theatre, eating out in London is one of the greatest pleasures. The capital has the most diverse cuisine in Europe and is close to rivalling Paris for Michelin stars. At the most recent count the city has sixty Michelin starred restaurants, including four with the ultimate accolade of three stars. London also has more popular museums and art galleries than any other city in the world. Some like the British Museum, the National Gallery, the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Natural History and Science Museums were founded in the Georgian and Victorian eras. The new arrivals, such as the Tate Modern, the Royal Festival Hall and the National Theatre lie along the vibrant South Bank, now connected to the north bank and St Paul’s Cathedral by walking over the Millennium Bridge. Whether you prefer renaissance or modern art, musicals or Shakespearian theatre, Chinese, fusion or European cuisine, there’s no better place to find it than London. 9 modern living-classic proportions 48 Totteridge Common is a meticulously designed new Mansion house standing in over three acres of its own beautiful landscaped grounds by Totteridge Common.

  • Spaces Wild, London Wildlife Trust
    SPACES WILD championing the values of London’s wildlife sites Protecting London’s wildlife for the future Foreword London is a remarkably green city supporting a wide diversity of habitats and species. Almost half of its area is blue and green space, and almost a fifth – covering over 1,500 different sites - is of sufficient value to biodiversity to be identified worthy of protection. These wildlife sites consist of much more than nature reserves, ranging from wetlands to chalk downs that are often valued by the local community for uses other than habitat. They have been established for almost 30 years, and as a network they provide the foundations for the conservation and enhancement of London’s wildlife, and the opportunity for people to experience the diversity of the city’s nature close to hand. They are a fantastic asset, but awareness of wildlife sites – the Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation (SINCs) – is low amongst the public (compared to, say, the Green Belt). There is understandable confusion between statutory wildlife sites and those identified through London’s planning process. In addition the reasons why SINCs have been identified SINCs cover 19.3% of the are often difficult to find out. With London set to grow to 10 million people by 2030 the pressures on our wildlife Greater London area sites will become profound. I have heard of local authorities being forced to choose between saving a local park and building a school. Accommodating our growth without causing a decline in the quality of our natural assets will be challenging; we have a target to build an estimated 42,000 homes a year in the capital merely to keep up with demand.

    Approval for the £40m Brent Cross West Station May 20, 2020 London’s newest train station, Brent Cross West, has received final approval by Barnet Council’s planning committee. Barnet Council held its first planning committee since the Covid-19 pandemic caused public committees to be temporarily suspended. Held virtually, committee members considered, and unanimously approved, the reserved matters application for the detailed design of the new Brent Cross West Station. The approval of the design of the new £40 million, four platform Brent Cross West Station is another significant milestone in the delivery of the ambitious Brent Cross Cricklewood regeneration programme. The state-of-the-art station will be the gateway to Brent Cross South, the new neighborhood at the heart of the development. It will also provide new transport options for the communities already living in Brent Cross, reaching central London’s Kings Cross St Pancras Station in under 15 minutes. The station will be built by VolkerFitzpatrick, one of the country’s leading station construction companies. VolkerFitzpatrick was awarded the contract to build the station in December 2019. Work to clear the site will begin in June with the main works to build the station due to start in January 2021 and be completed in 2022. Ensuring access for all As well as a striking design that has be developed to be light, airy and as safe as possible for passengers, the station has been carefully designed to be accessible for passengers with mobility issues or other access needs. Working with the Brent Cross Consultative Access Forum, Brent Cross West will be the first mainline station outside of central London to install platform humps that ensure there are level boarding points on to the trains from the platform, in addition to offering step-free access from street level to the platforms.
