About

Southbury East sits on the eastern side of the Southbury area in the London Borough of Enfield, with Southbury Road (part of the A110) as its main spine. The streets close to the road are a mix of Victorian and 20th‑century terraces and council housing, while light industrial units and small warehouses sit nearer the railway corridor. Local life concentrates along the high street, where long-established shops and takeaways share space with convenience stores, a library and a community centre. Southbury railway station provides a local rail link on the Enfield branch of the Lea Valley routes.

Behind the shopping parade the area opens into quieter residential streets and school grounds, with pockets of allotments and small play spaces used by neighbours. Planning and development in recent years has focused on upgrading public spaces and adapting older buildings for new uses, while retaining the street pattern that marks the area. Bus routes along the A110 and short local links make travel to Enfield Town and neighbouring districts straightforward for residents.
