Parkland Walk

A slow walk with my daughter to Park Walk on the western edge of Finsbury Park. It’s on the route of an old railway line which the Victorians built to link Stroud Green to the Winchester Hall Tavern on Archway Road. Commuters would leave the Finsbury Park area in the eary morning then get massively drunk at The Winchester and roll off home in the evening. “Did you have a good day at the office, dear?” “God it was tough. Took ages to get served.”
