Mayes Roaad Citadel and market, c1965

This was just up from the now long-lost juction of Mayes Road and Wood Green High Road. Interesting to comapre this shot with a very similar one from 1905.

The terrace on shops that stood opposite can be seen in this photo.

Mayes Road was truncated during the development of Shopping City and no longer joins the High Road. You can see what happened in the explanation accompanying this image.
