The Edgware Road was one of the first roads to be constructed by the Romans in.

The oldest building in Friern Barnet is St James' Anglican church. Rebuilt in 1853, the 12th-century south doorway is the only part of the original church. St. James's Church of England primary school, formerly Friern Barnet National school, replaced the charity school in 1853.

Until the 1820s the Great North Road came into Barnet through the small Victoria Lane, which runs down the side of the Graseby House building part of Barnet College. The lane is now cut short, but it used to run down to the Red Lion at Underhill. The road was an important military route to the port of Holyhead and Ireland. From 1818 a new straighter road was constructed on the embankment we see today, which was less steep. The new road allowed armies to move more swiftly along it.

The manor house, now the Sternberg Centre, was built in 1723 by the Allens. Bibbesworth, Finchley's original manor house (c1253), was destroyed by fire in the 15th and 16th centuries. Of the original building only a ditch, possibly a moat, remains.
