Sonstiges » Corey Knebel Jersey

Our main route takes us north up Compton Road Marwin Evans Youth Jersey , with pompous stuccoes mid-19C houses, leading up to St Pauls Road, where you turn right, cross and then turn left into Highbury Grove.

Highbury is an entity distinct from both Canonbury and Islington and developed separately from the later 18C. As a development it was never so co-ordinated or complete but some individual terraces are as beautiful as any in Islington.

Ascend Highbury Grove. A big 1960s school is on your right and Italianate villas on the left. Many more such villas can be seen in a detour down Highbury New Park, to the right Geronimo Allison Youth Jersey , a complete development of the 1850s. As you walk up Highbury Grove, Highbury Fields comes into view on your left.

Another look to our right, round Aberdeen Park, gives a text-book lesson on housing with examples from all periods from Italianate Victorian to what have become known as Bypass Variegated homes of the 1930s. In the middle of it all is the church of St Saviour, once a large polychrome brick Gothic Revival building by William White.

Walk back round to Highbury Grove and turn right to the top of the hill Justin Vogel Youth Jersey , then cross over to Christchurch by Thomas Allom (1847-48), creator of Ladbroke Grove, spreading around the corner. Outside is an 1897 clock tower and a pleasant street, Highbury Hill stretching west. But we turn south down Church Path, through a delightful avenue of trees Kentrell Brice Youth Jersey , to Highbury Fields, an ancient open space saved from developers in the 1880s by the Metropolitan Board of Works.
