Abingdon Road, N3
Finchley Central
Abingdon Road runs north east from Long Lane, roughly parallel with the North Circular Road.

Now a development of typical Finchley suburbia, Abingdon Road was laid out in a narrow field backed by a footpath which ran from Bow Lane to Tarling Road past a gravel pit in Victorian times.

Tudor Primary School, now at the end of the road, was built between Abingdon Road and the footpath, cutting it off.
