Arnos Park

 

Only a short walk on from Broomfield Park is Arnos Park. It is a long but relatively narrow park. As you can see below, it looks most stunning in the late afternoon sun an an autumn day.

Unlike many North London parks it lacks an ornamental lake, but it does have a river running through it, or at least a brook, Pymme's Brook.

The dreaded parakeet has reached Barnet.

But nice to see a native species, and what can feel more native than a robin.

This is the pathway beyond Arnos Park. As to where that leads, wait for another post (exciting eh?)

But the real highlight of this park is the railway viaduct for the Piccadilly Line. Where the underground goes up into the sky.
