About

Edgware ward is a residential district in the London Borough of Barnet, centred around the historic Edgware High Street. The area is primarily characterised by suburban housing, ranging from inter-war semis to modern apartment blocks. It functions as a major transport hub, anchored by its terminus station on the Northern line, providing a direct link to central London.

The local economy is served by the high street's shops and the large Broadwalk Shopping Centre. A notable local landmark is the 14th-century St. Margaret's Church, which stands in contrast to the surrounding urban development. Green space is provided by the playing fields of St. James's Church and the open grounds of St. Margaret's.
