Geocache Description:

Finsbury Park is an area of North London, about 5km north of the City of London. Park in the park


Finsbury Park was opened on 9th August 1869. Before the Park the area was called Hornsey Wood and had a wood, a meadow, a lake and a Tavern. It was a place people walked out of London to on Sunday for relaxation. It gets its name from Finsbury, the area just outside the city wall at the north. Formerly it was known as Stroud Green. When part of Hornsey Wood or Hornsey Park was bought as a public park in 1869, the park was called Finsbury Park to suggest it was an open space for the people of the City ward of Finsbury. At the same time the small railway station at the junction of Stroud Green Road and Seven Sisters Road was renamed Finsbury Park. Things near by… Fonthill Road, near to Finsbury Park station, has over 200 small fashion shops, both retail and wholesale, and the Florentia Clothing Village in Vale Road is a maze of small workshops open to the public at weekends. Highbury Stadium, the home ground of Arsenal Football club since 1913 (they were originally founded in Woolwich in south east London.) Just a few metres from the roar of the stadium and you can be in the tranquillity of the Gillespie Park Nature reserve, a wildlife area on the site of former rail sidings. Parkland Walk, which runs 7km along the route of the now closed rail link to Alexandra Palace, is another nature reserve in the area. Also near by is the Astoria now closed and used as a evangelical church but worth a photo

The New River, which runs through the northern corner of the park, was built following Acts of Parliament in 1606 and 1607 to bring fresh water from Chadwell and Amwell in Hertfordshire to London. It still does so, although it now ends at the water treatment works in neighbouring Stoke Newington.
