Arnos Grove Escorts
Arnos Grove is an area in the south west corner of the London Borough of Enfield, England.
It sits close to Enfield's borders with two other boroughs: Barnet and Haringey. Arnos Grove used to be considered part of Southgate, and then New Southgate.
Today Arnos Grove is centred on the western end of Bowes Road A1110 road, although the estate was centred on what is now Morton Crescent.
The southward expansion of Arnos Grove, which was initiated by the bias of facilities to the south of the original estate, was aided by the destruction of parts of New Southgate during World War II. There is now an almost continuous line of shops between Arnos Grove and New Southgate, via Bestyle Circus, making the areas closely linked. Today, seven bus routes (six day - the 34, 184, 232, 251, 298 and 382 - and one night - the N91[6]) link Arnos Grove and New Southgate stations. Both areas have been helped by the redevelopment of the nearby Colney Hatch Lunatic Asylum into Princess Park Manor, an 'exclusive residential development' containing 'luxury apartments' and a health and fitness complex, where several celebrities live.
Today Arnos Grove is still growing, with local and regional shop brands opening new premises regularly along the Arnos Grove stretch of Bowes Road including a Sainsbury's Local[7] that opened in 2010 where, until the mid-2000s, the local Post Office had been.
One of the main features of Arnos Grove is Arnos Park (44 acres or 18ha in size[4]). Arnos Park is a remnant of the Arnos Grove Estate, and was opened in 1928 after having been purchased by Southgate Council.[4] The Pymmes Brook flows throughout the length of the park. However, although Arnos Park contains diverse woodland, it is mostly grassy fields. A large brick viaduct, with 34 (numbered) arches,[8] carries the Piccadilly line beyond Arnos Grove tube station towards Southgate through the western end of the park.[9] The park contains a large playground for children as well as several tennis courts. The Pymmes Brook Trail passes through the park. Also, evidence of the abandoned New River loop can be found within the trees in the north side of the park.[10]
Recently, public transport in Arnos Grove has been greatly improved - Arnos Grove tube station received major refurbishments in 2005, and the area has seen a large increase in the number of bus routes over the last few years, with the newest routes being the 298 (extended from Southgate) and the 382 (new bus route). This has caused a large change in the number and location of bus stops in 2006, with the most-used bus stop being split into two stops and many new bus stops being built. The new bus stops, however, were not built in pairs (one either side of the road), as has been the tradition with bus stops in London. Instead, the stops have been staggered, with Our Lady of Lourdes Roman Catholic Church and the Arnos Pool/Bowes Road Library complex gaining bus stops.
One of the most famous transport problems associated with Arnos Grove is the long-delayed improvements to the A406 road (North Circular) between Palmers Green and Bounds Green. Arnos Grove is near this section of the A406 road. The junction most commonly associated with Arnos Grove is a crossroads between Bowes Road, Wilmer Way and Telford Road. This is one of the few junctions on the A406 road that the A406 road does not run straight through or under, hence the need for improvements. Originally, when the A406 road was under the control of the Highways Agency, a number of underpasses, like those at the Great Cambridge Roundabout and Edmonton sections were planned.[11] However, before these plans were carried out, TfL gained control of the A406 road. TfL have scrapped the idea of underpasses, favouring alternative ideas, such as improving junctions.[12]
In December 2008 residents of Arnos Grove were informed by letter from TfL that work to widen the North Circular between Station Road and Green Lanes would shortly begin.
