CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
Torrington Park, part of Henry Holden's Friern Park estate lying east of the Great North Road, was already being built up by 1872, when his land on the western boundary of the parish was misleadingly advertised as 'Torrington Park', a freehold building estate. Most of the same estate (34 acres) was offered again in 1900 after Holden's death, by which time most of his land east of Holden Road had been built up. 'Artistic villas' were under construction in Westbury Road to the south in 1910 and land in Woodside Avenue was offered for good-class housing in 1914.
From: A History of the County of Middlesex: Volume 6: Friern Barnet, Finchley, Hornsey with Highgate (1980), pp. 38-55 (available online).
