Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Alpha House School, Seymour Road, c1900 2 of 3

With thanks to HoL member Geraldine who alerted me to this school and to both her and Trisha for helping me find the photos. Geraldine remembers the school being "in the house right before the alleys, on the left-hand side looking up towards Wightman Road". However, looking at the three photos, at least two of them seem to have been taken behind different houses. The view in the third is completely different and it may or may not be in on of the same gardens as one of the other two schools. I wonder if the school may have moved premises at some point.

The school was evidently still going in the 1940s since Geraldine attended it at that time.

Records show that the school was affiliated to or run by St Paul's Church in Harringay.

Geraldine writes that it was also known as 'Miss Wainwright's School.'
