The road was originally part of an ancient bridleway that ran from Cockfosters to Monken Hadley. [1] Gates halfway down Games Road mark the transition from public road to land that is part of the Common and Games Road continues westwards onto the common as a single track tarmacked way, the border of the Common being marked by white posts. The gates are grade II listed by Historic England. [2]
Three cottages (1750) adjacent to the white gates are locally listed with the London Borough of Barnet. [1]
Ludgrove Hall, a former private home, then a school, now flats, is located at the western end of Games Road on the south side.
In addition to pathways on the Common, the London Loop passes along Games Road. [3]
