Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Map of OVERGROUND with indications of step free/lift access?

Lots of clever people on here so maybe someone can help?

I am trying to find a map of the OVERGROUND that will indicate which stations are step free/have a lift (not escalators).

Relatively easy to find map like that for the tube but not for the Overground - rather than having to check every station I am interested in (at the moment: Crouch Hill, Gospel Oak, Hampstead Heath only) - does anyone know if a map like that exists?

Wanted to take my grumpy old dog to Hampstead Heath and with her bad hips/spine she should not be using stairs and due to her size (40kg) I can not carry her on escalators so stations with a lift are the best.

Thanks a million if anyone can help?

The standard tube map shows on the overground which stations are step free (the wheelchair symbol)

Does that help?

It should do

Yes Crouch Hill is closed till late Feb, and will be closed at weekends after that till mid-year.

Unluckily for you, it has 20+ steps (from the road bridge over the railway, to give an idea) , no ramp and no lift.  

Gospel Oak and Hampstead Heath have lifts from platforms to ground level. Harringay Green Lanes has ramps, but no lift.

You can look up station facilities for Overground on the National Rail website: here's the Crouch Hill page as an example. http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/stations_destinations/CRH.aspx

Getting to the north end of Hampstead Heath by bus might be another option - the 210 bus starts at the Wells Terrace side of Finsbury Park station, goes up Stroud Green Road to the traffic lights by The Old Dairy, and thence to Waterlow Park (a little gem), Highgate, Kenwood, the Spaniards Inn and Jack Straw's Castle and finally Brent Cross.
