A Community Network for Bowes Park and Bounds Green
I GREW UP IN HOE LANE, ENFIELD IN "WILLIAMS COTTAGES". MY FATHER ALSO GREW UP
IN THAT COTTAGE AND HE REMEMBERS THAT THERE WERE ORCHARDS OPPOSITE OUR
ROW OF COTTAGES (BUILT AROUND 1876 BY WILLIAM RANSOM). I AM WRITING A
HISTORY OF ENFIELD, AND WOULD LOVE TO KNOW IF ANYONE HAS PHOTOS OF
HOE LANE (HERTFORD ROAD END) TAKEN BEFORE THE 1930'S.

Hello Joyce
Eastern Enfield is a little outside our core area - but we may find somebody with a connection.
There are a couple of comments about Hoe Lane specifically, on a local history discussion here, and there is a site specifically for Enfield Island Village which may have access to more local history images.
If you have not already tried them the best place to access historical images is the Enfield Local Studies and Archive Centre based at the Dugdale Centre in Enfield Town.
Other local history organisations can be contacted via their websites linked below:
Edmonton Hundred Historical Society
Enfield Archaeological Society
Frien Barnet and District Historical Society
Southgate District Civic Trust
Good Luck - do let us know how you get on
I put out a message via Twitter to spread the word and Enfield Council have replied with this message:
