Harringay Map, 1940

Interesting to see no church marked on Mattison, but two on Burgoyne, and no junior school marked on the west side of the passage at South Harringay. Oh, and the road cutting the corner of Chestnuts Park

Yes quite odd since the Mattison Church has been there since 1901

I think the second Burgoyne church was the old Iron church that was built as a stop-gap whilst the church at the top of the hill was being built. The corner cutting at Chestnuts was the old road pattern, I think. The small triangle was old a remnant of old green, whereas the main part of the park was the grounds of a private house.
