As I recall this is the reception area, mostly used for events although I do recall an information desk for Hornsey Borough Council somewhere here.
and a 'Cashiers Office' for paying the rent or rates . Gosh that brings back memories, polished brass and art deco style.
I remember our school (Priory Vale, ex-North Harringay Secondary Modern) prize giving was held there in September (I think) 1964 and somehow they got the famous Douglas Bader to hand out the prizes/certificates.
Let's hope the place opens up soon, I love it. My wife had a couple of exhibitions there in the PLY gallery and I was lucky enough to be shown around the basement by the caretaker at the time. Fascinating secure vaults for storing rate payers subs.
