ABOUT THE AREA

Middlesex is a historic county in southeast England. It is now entirely within the wider urbanised area of London. Its area is now also mostly within the ceremonial county of Greater London, with small sections in other neighbouring ceremonial counties. Middlesex University London is a public university in Hendon, north west London, England. It is one of the post-1992 universities and is a member of the Million+ working group. The name of the University is taken from its location within the historic county boundaries of Middlesex.

Situated less than half an hour up the Northern Line from central London’s Leicester Square, Hendon is a slice of real London that we’re proud to call home. From this friendly suburb you can easily travel throughout London, the UK and internationally, while avoiding all the stress of everyday city life. Hendon is a place where eating out is authentic, pubs are full of character, living is affordable and being a student is fun.

Only a few minutes’ walk from campus you’ll find a wide variety of shops where you can stock up on groceries and household goods. You’ll also be within walking distance of some of north-west London’s best food and entertainment, including Hendon Bagel Bakery and student favourite the Claddagh Ring, a popular Irish pub with regular open mic nights and quizzes. Or you can head over to Brent Street for a taste of international flavour in the diverse range of shops and cafes.
