Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Anyone know why it's "Green Lanes" & not "Green Lane"?

Satguru just posted this photo to the Harringay Online Flickr group asking that question. I really don't know the answer. Anyone?

A frend has suggested that green lanes were unmetalled tracks that led, for example, to farms and would be used by horse and cart. The street that we know as Green Lanes would have been the road off which a number of green lanes led.
