Description
Church Farmhouse Museum in Hendon is one of the oldest surviving dwelling houses in the borough of Barnet. It was built in about 1660 and was the centre of a busy dairy and hay making farm until the first half of this century. The house was opened as a local museum in 1955.

The museum has a furnished 1820s kitchen with adjoining laundry room, a bake oven, a huge fireplace and a stone flagged floor. The 1850s dining room has panelling from an earlier period and the rest of the house is full of interest, from the distinctive chimney to the unusual layout.
