Monken Hadley School

Monken Hadley School is a primary school located in Monken Hadley Common (northern of part London Borough of Barnet). Monks founded Monken Hadley in the 13th century and a school was built by the Church of England in partnership with the government in 1832. The Common leads to Hadley Woods which used to be part of Enfield Chase. Royalty hunted here and in 1777 King George III passed an act of parliament giving the villagers local farming rights. The school badge features the church tower and its 'creset beacon'.
