About

Temple Fortune sits in the London Borough of Barnet along Finchley Road, around the junction with Hoop Lane. The area has a long shopping parade that serves local streets, with a mix of small shops, cafés and community services. Residential streets step back from the main road and include a range of housing from early 20th‑century terraces to mid‑century semi‑detached homes. Places of worship reflect the local community and there are schools and sports facilities used by neighbourhood groups.

The place name records go back to medieval land ownership by the Knights Templar, which survives in local street names and plot boundaries. Transport is focused on Finchley Road: frequent bus services run along the spine and several Underground stations are reachable on foot or a short bus ride, giving direct links into central and north London. Everyday life in Temple Fortune tends to centre on the parade, the community halls and the small green spaces tucked into the residential area.
