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.

Famous quotes containing the word boundaries:
“Women’s art, though created in solitude, wells up out of community. There is, clearly, both enormous hunger for the work thus being diffused, and an explosion of creative energy, bursting through the coercive choicelessness of the system on whose boundaries we are working.”
—Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
“We love to overlook the boundaries which we do not wish to pass.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“Whereas the Greeks gave to will the boundaries of reason, we have come to put the will’s impulse in the very center of reason, which has, as a result, become deadly.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
