Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Hi Everyone,

I’m a musician beginning a small sound project. I am researching the old turnpike toll gate that used to be around Turnpike Lane and I’m trying to track down any traces or memories of it. I’m particularly interested in things like:

- Any physical remnants e.g., old posts, animal feeding points, boundary stones, unusual paths or older buildings that might have been toll-keeper cottages

- Local stories or photographs that show anything relating to the toll gate.

- Old signs, or plaques — anything that might have marked the toll boundary or fees.

- Sound files that anyone might know of relating to this - extreme long shot!

- Any ritual processes that happened around the toll gate

- Any maps that show the toll gate

If you’ve seen or heard anything like this  I’d love to hear from you. 

Thanks so much!

Alice
