About Hendon

Hendon is a London suburb in the Borough of Barnet, 7 miles (11 km) northwest of Charing Cross. Hendon was an ancient parish in the county of Middlesex and has been part of Greater London since 1965. Hendon had a population of 52,972 in 2011 and includes the Hendon, Hendon West and Colindale wards. During the 18th century, some of the immediate estate surrounding Hendon Place was auctioned off for large houses, with much of the land being used for building other mansions. Of these, Hendon Hall (now a hotel owned by Hand Picked Hotels), built in 1756 at the corner of Ashley Lane, is the last remaining and perhaps the best known. Brent Street was part of a northern route out of London, and at the Quadrant a seven-mile stone – the last piece of physical evidence for the road – is set into a wall.

The escape of working class orthodox Jewish people escaping the bombing of the East End of London, which led to the setting up of smaller shtiblach. And as the property prices rose in nearby Golders Green the influx of younger orthodox Jews desiring affordable property prices from the late 1970s onwards. Today Hendons Jewish population accounts for 31% of the general population.
