"Thanks Colin and Mick. It's an excellent video. I have walked this route from Muswell Hill to Finsbury Park many times. Well worth doing."

Hi Colin - I will happily accept your challenge as it may provide some missing parts of the jigsaw as I research the history of the top end of Bounds Green (particularly the industrial history around Cline Road).

 

I've often thought that the estate opposite Homebase was the remnant of something bigger, and remember a pub there now long demolished (forgot the name tho).

Thanks in anticipation.
