You’ll be welcomed to Finchley by a tall statue of a naked woman with outstretched arms, who the locals affectionately call ‘Dirty Gertie’; but don’t worry, the neighbours will be a little more covered up! Situated almost eight miles north of Charing Cross, Finchley is a large, bustling, diverse neighbourhood popular with the Jewish and Roman Catholic communities, as well as an ample choice of homes to rent. Finchley runs along Regent’s Park Road from Whetstone in the north, to the North Circular Road just south of the area. Mill Hill, Golders Green and Friern Barnet surround Finchley and the Tally Ho pub, a favourite among locals, straddles the border with Church End.
