Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!


With many thanks to David Sexton for sending me this photo.

From the other side of the postcard: Posted 12.15 am May 31st 1906 at Finsbury Park PO to a friend in Slough, by somebody called I think Flo, who says “I am sending you a view of the road in which I live and hope you will like it.”

Philip, number 76 used to be of interest. Up until a few years ago, it looked unchanged from the early 20th century, from the old green paintwork to the surviving pleached limes. It was empty for a long time before being sold and I peeked inside once and saw that the interior looked largely early mid-century, down to the early dolly style light switches.

During the time we lived there our neighbours at number 76 were Mr and Mrs Fred Tierney. They will be long gone now.
