Event-Day Parking at Underhill Stadium
Underhill Stadium stood at 6 Barnet Lane, High Barnet, Greater London, EN5 2DW, but the ground was demolished in 2018 and the site is now occupied by Ark Pioneer (Wikipedia). Drivers looking for a current match-day car park should therefore avoid treating the former stadium address as an operating venue.
Barnet FC’s former guide urged supporters to use the M25 and asked visitors to respect local neighbours when parking (barnetfc.com). A Barnet Football Club supporters’ directions page identified the station car park as the officially preferred parking choice, reached by turning left halfway down the hill just past the pelican crossing (onlybarnet.com). The proposed New Underhill scheme included associated parking and a seven thousand seat stadium, but the planning material describes a proposal rather than an operating facility (newunderhill.com).
Parksy Spaces Near the Former Underhill Site
The closest priced Parksy listings include a High Barnet Station car park space, 0.3 mi away, at £11 a day, plus a secure High Barnet parking space, also 0.3 mi away, at £96 a month. A monthly space at Barnet Hospital in High Barnet is listed at 0.3 mi and £100 a month.
For a show or match at a replacement venue, the 0.3 mi options give a short walk after the event, while the High Barnet Tube Station space on Meadway is 0.4 mi away and costs £12.50 an hour. A South Norwood space at Portland Medical Centre is 0.4 mi away and costs £4.20 a day, although its locality makes it a less direct choice for High Barnet. One further Parksy listing, a secure space near Lyndon Playing Fields in the West Midlands, is 303 yd away and costs £46 a month.
Named Parking Alternatives Around High Barnet
The station car park is the named alternative closest to the old ground, and the supporters’ directions page calls it the officially preferred parking location (onlybarnet.com). Its position is described as halfway down the hill, just past the pelican crossing, after turning left (onlybarnet.com).
Drivers can also consider the Barnet Hospital car park area, which is covered by the neighbouring Barnet Hospital CPZ alongside the Underhill South CPZ (barnet.gov.uk). The New Underhill planning scheme proposed associated parking beside a new seven thousand seat stadium, but the document presents this as part of a development proposal rather than a confirmed public car park (newunderhill.com). Barnet FC’s former visitor advice also pointed motorists towards the M25 as the best approach option (barnetfc.com).
Street Restrictions and Enforcement Near Underhill
The Underhill South proposed CPZ became operational on Monday 15 December 2025, operating at the same time as the neighbouring Barnet Hospital CPZ (barnet.gov.uk). This places controlled parking arrangements around the former stadium site and the hospital area, rather than leaving every nearby residential street as unrestricted event parking.
Barnet FC’s former parking guidance specifically asked supporters to respect neighbours when leaving their cars (barnetfc.com). The supporters’ directions page directed visitors towards the station car park rather than indiscriminate roadside parking, with the recommended turn located just past the pelican crossing (onlybarnet.com). The former ground was demolished in 2018, so match-day restrictions should be considered in relation to current local controls and any replacement event site rather than assumed stadium operations (Wikipedia).
Rail and Walking Access From High Barnet Stations
High Barnet tube station is the nearest station to the former Underhill address, at 0.3 mi and a 7 min walk. The station car park was identified as the officially preferred parking choice in the supporters’ directions (onlybarnet.com), making rail a practical alternative for drivers who want to avoid residential streets.
New Barnet railway station is another rail option, at approximately a 16 min walk. The two stations provide different approaches to High Barnet, while the former ground’s recorded location was Westcombe Drive, Barnet, Hertfordshire, EN5 (Wikipedia).
