Enfield sits right on the northern edge of London, acting as a bridge between the dense urban sprawl of the city and the rolling greenery of the Hertfordshire countryside. Historically a market town and a royal hunting ground, it retains a distinct character that sets it apart from more central boroughs. The area is defined by its variety; you have the bustling commercial centre around the Town and Palace Gardens, contrasted with the quieter, leafier pockets of Clay Hill and the expansive Forty Hall Estate. Geographically, it’s one of the highest points in London, which means many of the parks - extending from the New River paths up to Trent Park - offer genuine breathing room and long views. It’s a practical place to be based, well-served by several overground lines that run into Liverpool Street and Moorgate, and it’s one of the few parts of the capital where you can still feel the influence of the original market-garden heritage that once supplied the city’s produce.
