Boundaries
The constituency covers Finchley, Golders Green, Childs Hill and Hampstead Garden Suburb in the London Borough of Barnet. It was created in 1997 when the old constituency of Finchley absorbed most of the old constituency of Hendon South and lost some of its wards to the Chipping Barnet seat. The changes removed Friern Barnet from the constituency and added Golders Green, Childs Hill and Hampstead Garden Suburb.
Finchley and Golders Green is currently made up of seven electoral wards from the London Borough of Barnet:
- Childs Hill, East Finchley, Finchley Church End, Garden Suburb, Golders Green, West Finchley, and Woodhouse.
