This narrow road was built circa 1825 to connect East Finchley's market to East End Road. Today it is closed to motor traffic and the market has long since gone. The old centre of East Finchley, which occupied the land around Market Place, Park Road and Chapel Court, was badly damaged by bombing on 15/16 November 1940 and the area was subsequently rebuilt with a mixture of houses and tower blocks. Prospect Place, on the other side of this bridge became Prospect Ring with its associated tower blocks.
