Join us for a gardening session at one of Barnet’s most historic and beautiful sites.

St Mary-at-Finchley is the oldest church in the area, with parts of the building dating back to the 12th century. The churchyard contains many listed memorials and is a peaceful green space in the heart of Finchley — a place of history, reflection and community.

This session is hosted as part of the church's London Festival of Architecture week of events.

The gardening activity is facilitated by Helen, who has been doing fantastic work supporting the upkeep of this important site.

**Good to know**
