Southbury sits in the eastern part of the London Borough of Enfield, straddling the busy Southbury Road and backed by the green corridors of the New River and Lee Valley. It benefits from good public transport, with local buses and nearby stations at Turkey Street and Enfield Lock giving straightforward journeys into central London.
The area has an industrial heritage linked to riverside works, notably the former Royal Small Arms Factory, and has seen regeneration in recent years including new housing around Enfield Island Village. That history, a mix of terraced and post‑war housing, and a lively local high street contribute to a socially and culturally diverse ward with active community groups, schools and independent shops.
