High Road (Finchley N2)

Last updated: 19 November, 2018

Shortly before 1300 a new road north out of London was made through Finchley, which we now call the High Road. At the bottom of the hill just where the railway crosses the road there was a bridge, later called Hanson's Bridge (1444), over a stream called Mutton Brook. The road was improved in 1712.

Clearing snow and ice from public footways

Last updated: 19 November, 2018

Residents' advice There's no law stopping you from clearing snow and ice on the public footways outside your home or from public spaces. It's unlikely you'll be sued or held legally responsible for any injuries on the path if you have cleared it carefully and not made the conditions worse. Remember, people walking on snow and ice have responsibility to be careful themselves.
