The History of Barnet
(Barnet, EN4/EN5, London borough of Barnet, Hertfordshire, Greater London)
High Barnet or Chipping Barnet is a place in the London Borough of Barnet, North London, England. It is a suburban
development built around a twelfth-century settlement and is located 10 miles (16.1 km) north north-west of Charing
Cross. Its name is often abbreviated to Barnet, which is also the name of the London borough of which it forms a part.
Chipping Barnet is the name of the Parliamentary constituency covering the local area - the word 'Chipping' denotes the
presence of a market (one was established here in the thirteenth century and persists to this day).
The town was the site of the Battle of Barnet in 1471 (more accurately, Hadley), where Yorkist troops led by King Edward
IV killed the rebellious "Kingmaker" Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick and Warwick's brother, John Neville, 1st Marquess
of Montagu. Barnet Hill is said to be the hill mentioned in the nursery rhyme "The Grand Old Duke of York".
