Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

A rubbish day in Harringay - Sunday 9 July

There has been a bit of support for taking photos of rubbish left on The Ladder streets on one day in the summer - Sunday 9 July. The idea is that all the photos are posted on this discussion, one post per street with pics, and then forwarded to the Cabinet Member for Environment.

It not a major undertaking, just up one side of the street and down the other, not forgetting the bits at the tops and bottoms of the road on Green Lanes and Wightman.

So far we have the following rubbish photographers

Justin Guest - Pemberton
Kotkas - Mattison and Duckett
Me - Warham, Seymour, Allison and Beresford (and Lausanne if my legs hold out)
Els - Sydney and Raleigh
Osbawn - Avondale
John D - Hampden and Frobisher
DS - Fairfax and Falkland
Hugh - Hewitt
ThaiDi -Hermitage
GraemeTP - Effingham
Gordon T - Cavendish and all points south

So, are we doing this on Sunday?

I was going to post a pic of the overflowing bin on Pemberton that I reported yesterday morning, it was stuffed, packed to the gunnels. Saw some poor chap dragging bag after bag out this morning to empty the thing. I get the feeling the sweeper may not be working this week as the passage heads should be cleaned daily, but I get the impression it is not happening...

Yes, still go for Sunday. I'm going to have a general wander north from Warham so will pick up any streets not listed at the top of this thread. Thanks for the reminder about Haringay Passage. Can photographers make sure they look down there on their ramble as it's a favoured dumping and dog fouling spot. I'm going to expand a bit to stuff that should also be picked up by street environment people like hedges, wheelie bins etc. blocking the pavement. Wightman is a hotspot for that sort of thing.

I wasn't expecting to be in the country, but a planned shoot has been pushed back by a few days. So I'll be around. You can put me down for Hewitt.

I'll aim to do Effingham Road: Green Lanes end seems to be a regular dumping ground...

As of Saturday afternoon we have pretty good coverage of The Ladder roads. I can do Allison and Beresford but does anyone want to put their hands up for the following so we have the full set?

Willoughby
Lausanne
Cavendish
Burgoyne
Umfreville (including Wollaston and Atterbury)
Lothair (north and south)
Endymion (including Conningsby, Tancred and Venetia)

Also, anyone feeling brave enough to tackle Turnpike Lane?

Almost a north-south divide - everything south of Duckett is up for grabs.

So, I'll save the honour of the Soft South and cover Cavendish through to Endymion and the side streets. At least it's a good weather day for it.

That leaves (at time of writing) Lausanne and Willoughby, and Turnpike Lane.
