  • Trent Park, Potential LIGS London Borough of Enfield, TQ 281 969 Ownership: Local Authority
    Guide to London’s Geological Sites GLA 55: Trent Park, Potential LIGS London Borough of Enfield, TQ 281 969 Ownership: Local Authority. Open access. Glacial Valleys Trent Park displays 4 different rock types and so is an excellent location for studying the influence the varied geology has had on the landscape. Areas of high ground are dissected by the Leeging Beech Gutter running through the centre of the park and the Merryhills Brook to the south. Both streams rise from spring lines in the west of the park and flow in an easterly direction towards the River Lea. Spring lines pick up the junctions between the lithologies and the small streams emanating from them have, in places, cut deep ravines. This cannot be the product of normal rainfall and must have happened as the ice sheet retreated at the end of the Anglian glaciation about 400,000 years ago. During subsequent ice ages the glaciers did not reach as far as London but, when frozen ground melted, an immense volume of water would have been released accompanied by much slippage of the surface. Superficial geology Other evidence of the Anglian ice sheet can be found in Trent Park as glacial till on top of the ridge that runs from the main car park near the Cockfosters Road to the top of Snakes Lane and also on the more northerly ridge just outside the park area at Ferny Hill Farm. Actual exposures are hard to see unless there have been some temporary excavations, but small pieces of white chalk are sometimes visible amongst newly-ploughed earth in the fields surrounding the farm.

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.

Timing Up to 6 hours walking time (for longest option) + refreshment stops. Walk leader Martyn Waring Meeting up Meet at Totteridge and Whetstone underground station at 10 am. and travel This is the penultimate stop on the High Barnet Branch of the Northern Line (in Zone 4). Allow about 35/40 minutes to get there by tube from Highbury or Angel stations, 20 minutes from Archway station. Return will be from Totteridge, High Barnet or Cockfosters (Piccadilly Line) depending on which option we (you) choose. All are covered by Freedom Pass or Oyster card. Route This walk explores areas of a large chunk of countryside (part of the greenbelt) that intrudes into London on the so-called Northern Heights - the hills above and behind the more famous ones of Hampstead and Highgate. From the station we head west, briefly along Dollis Brook (further out than the stretch covered by the pre-Christmas walk) then taking in Darland Lake (once part of a large estate) and Totteridge Common before stopping for lunch close to Mill Hill school. After lunch we continue on a roughly circular route, going north and then turning back east, eventually reaching the edge of Barnet, from where there’s a choice of returning to Totteridge and Whetstone (an easy to navigate 1 km along Dollis Brook) or continuing (on the London Loop) to Monken Hadley and (if you want to do the full 12 miles) via Hadley Common to Cockfosters.

  • Winchmore Hill
    Enfield Society News No. 194, Summer 2014 Enfield’s ‘mini-Holland’ project: for and against In our last issue we discussed some of the proposals in Enfield Council’s bid under the London Mayor’s “mini-Holland” scheme to make the borough more cycle-friendly. On 10th March the Mayor announced that Enfield was one of three boroughs whose bids had been selected and that we would receive up to £30 million to implement the project. This provides a great opportunity to make extensive changes and improvements which will affect everyone who uses our streets and town centres, but there is not unanimous agreement that the present proposals are the best way of spending this money. The Council has promised extensive consultations before the proposals are developed to a detailed design stage, but it is not clear whether there are conditions attached to the funds which would prevent significant departures from the proposals in the bid. The Enfield Society thinks that it would be premature to express a definitive view until the options have been fully explored, but we are keen to participate in the consultation process, in accordance with the aim in our constitution to “ensure that new developments are environmentally sound, well designed and take account of the relevant interests of all sections of the community”. We have therefore asked two of our members to write columns for and against the current proposals, in order to stimulate discussion. A third column, from the Enfield Town Conservation Area Study Group, suggests a more visionary transformation of Enfield Town. Yes to mini-Holland! Doubts about mini- Let’s start with the people of Enfield.
