Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Is there anyone here that went to St Mary’s Priory (Convent), when it was still a fee paying school? I was in the last Prep 4 in 1966, going on to St Angela’s at Wood Green…a school that fell far short of the standard of education and pastoral care that St Mary’s provided.

The grounds stretched all the way to the railway embankment, we had the convent garden to roam in and enormous playgrounds. 
The nuns were calmly strict and very encouraging. I revisited the convent four years ago, most of the land has been built on…but the garden and cemetery were still intact.
