Postal area NW4
Hendon was a Middlesex village, albeit large, until the arrival of the railway.


The Midland Main Line reached Hendon in 1868 followed by London Underground further east under the name Hendon Central in 1923.

The district is famous historically for the London Aerodrome which later became RAF Hendon.
