Southgate and Oakwood share a building history: both were laid out as 1930s Piccadilly line suburbs, with semi-detached housing on broadly similar plot widths. That gives N14 a more consistent starting point than many neighbouring districts — garden dimensions and typical boundary lengths don't vary as much street to street, which makes it easier to give an indicative estimate before a full site visit than in a more mixed district. N14 falls under the London Borough of Enfield despite its N postcode prefix, which residents used to a different borough's rules sometimes need pointing out.
