Tally Ho Corner and North Finchley’s Future
North Finchley’s town centre grew up around Tally Ho Corner, where Ballards Lane meets the High Road. It is a busy bus hub, with the artsdepot arts centre on one side and a mix of shops, offices and flats around it. The area has been earmarked for change for some time. The Barnet Post reported in September 2025 that Sanprine Ltd had submitted plans to Barnet Council for a 16-storey building with 106 flats, shops and community space on the Balfour House site on Ballards Lane, as an alternative to a separate developer’s scheme for the Tally Ho Triangle.
Whichever scheme goes ahead, the result will be more homes and more building work in a town centre where the roads are already busy with buses. A courier in Finchley working here needs to know which side streets have loading, how to avoid getting trapped in the one-way traffic around the triangle, and when the bus lanes are in force.

Finchley Courier FAQs
Is it hard to stop near Tally Ho Corner?
It can be, because of the bus stops and one-way traffic. Our drivers use side streets with loading allowed and carry the goods to you.
Can samples go from Finchley Memorial Hospital to a lab today?
Yes. Give us the department, the lab and any packaging needs. We deliver to the named contact and confirm the handover.
Do you cover all three Finchleys?
Yes: Church End, North Finchley and East Finchley, plus Woodside Park, Friern Barnet and Whetstone.
How do you get from Finchley to the M1?
Usually via the North Circular to Brent Cross, or the A1 and Mill Hill to junction 2 or 4. It takes around ten minutes off-peak.
What does a night-time collection in Finchley cost?
A little more than the same trip at 2pm on a Tuesday, since after-hours driving carries a premium. That premium is inside the quote, not added later.
