Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Council invites responses to final Black Boy Lane Consultation

The following is an excerpt from the consutatuin letter:

I am writing to you in relation to the proposal to change the name of your street. Our previous consultation – which asked whether residents preferred the name ‘La Rose Lane’ or ‘Jocelyn Barrow Lane’ – showed that residents preferred the name ‘La Rose Lane’. 

We are now moving into the next phase of the consultation on whether the street name should remain as Black Boy Lane or be changed to ‘La Rose Lane’. 

The consultation is being undertaken as part of our wider Review on Monuments, Building, Place and Street Names in Haringey. This is an important piece of work through which we will be looking at a range of creative ways to celebrate the culture and diversity that we are so proud of in our borough. We know that there are a number ideas and ways in which we can do this, and this consultation is an opportunity to hear your thoughts and feedback on the specific proposal on whether Black Boy Lane should be renamed as ‘La Rose Lane’ in celebration of John La Rose, a former Haringey resident, publisher, essayist and poet. 

The consultation is open from 15th January 2021 to 19th February 2021.
