About

West Hendon sits in the London Borough of Barnet in north‑west London, bounded to the west by the Brent Reservoir, commonly called the Welsh Harp. The reservoir provides open water used for sailing and supports wetland birds; paths and vantage points around the shore are used for walking and informal recreation. Streets of housing and terraces spread east from the reservoir toward the local high road, with small parades of shops and services serving day‑to‑day needs. Green fringes and reedbeds by the water mark a visible change from the built streets.

The neighbourhood includes the long‑standing West Hendon Estate, which has been the focus of large‑scale regeneration that replaced mid‑20th‑century housing with new streets, flats and public spaces while keeping community facilities. West Hendon Broadway contains convenience stores, cafés and health services used by residents. Bus routes link the area to nearby rail connections and to central London, and local schools and community centres provide activity and support. The combination of waterside access and recent development shapes how people use the area.
