The Location

Enfield - the most northern borough of London. This neighbourhood has more than 900 hectares of parks and open spaces, including the eight acres of grounds to explore at Myddleton House and Gardens, and 30 acres of themed gardens at nearby Capel Manor, making it a tranquil haven for its residents. Enfield’s 27-mile New River Loop is the longest length of river corridor in London – which is impressive for a borough that doesn’t border the Thames - and, making the most of its waterside links, the huge Meridian Water project has already turned tides with a wealth of new homes and jobs.

The History of Enfield

This London borough recorded a population of 156,858 in 2018, encompassing areas such as Bush Hill, Enfield Town, Ponders End and more. It was granted urban district status in 1894 and municipal borough status in 1955.

Noteable places include Enfield Palace a sixteenth century manor house, Enfield Market formed in 1303 which is still in existence and The New River built to supply water to London from Hertfordshire.

Living in Enfield

There are a vast number of sporting and leisure opportunities in Enfield including the mixed-use QE11 Stadium - which was once an athletics track used by the likes of Sebastian Coe, Daley Thompson, and Linford Christie, three major British Olympic athletes. Enfield is also an area that is rich with education and, as home to three of Middlesex University’s campuses, Enfield is a favourite for both domestic and international students. There are 26 ‘outstanding’ schools in the borough, and Enfield’s renowned Chicken Shed Theatre group is the largest inclusive theatre group in Europe.

Enfield sits between Welwyn, Hatfield and Broxbourne in the north and Haringey in the south. It is blessed with a generous mix of Underground and Overground stations, including the new railway station at Meridian Water that takes commuting residents to London Liverpool Street in just 24 minutes. There are a great number of entertainment opportunities as well, including the Trent Park House gardens and the events at Grade 1-listed Forty Hall.
