Finchley is within the borough of Barnet in the capital city of London. It lays 7 kilometres away from the hub that is Charing Cross. It was an ancient parish in times gone by. Today, it is mainly a residential area. The common was a hotspot for highwaymen earlier. Local places of interest include the pretty St Mary’s Church, the delightfully named Tally Ho Corner, the area’s last farm, the old Christ’s Collage, College Farm; the art deco fronted Phoenix Cinema, the statue called The Archer, and the centre for Judaism. The town’s claim to fame is having been the birthplace of famous singer George Michaels.
