There is a diverse selection of shops, restaurants, independently- owned bars and cafes, beauty salons, sport facilities and recreational grounds. Many of the bars, restaurants and cafes can be found on the popular award winning ‘High street of the Year', Myddleton Road. History In the latter half of the 19th century and before urbanisation Bowes Park was part of Wood Green & Tottenham and covered by woodland called Tottenham Wood, hence the original name of the area, Tottenham Wood Green. The 18 acre area was auctioned off as 'Wood-Green' in 9 separate plots on 13 August 1806 by local agent Prickett and Ellis at Garraway's Coffee house in Cornhill,London. Housing Stock With its vast array of both Edwardian and Victorian properties and the progressive emergence of modern high specification developments, Bowes Park attracts many different types of property buyers and tenants, from professionals and families to first-time buyers and students.

  • Green Lanes, Haringey
    Best Practice Examples Example 1: Myddleton Road, Bowes Park, Haringey Myddleton Road, Bowes Park, is now one of Haringey’s most beautiful shopping streets after enjoying a re- vival assisted through a funded regeneration exercise. One of the challenges in this case was to ensure that its character was protected as new businesses open their doors. In order to celebrate Haringey’s heritage the regeneration of this area involved careful restoration of the shop fronts of four of the arcade’s ornate buildings – returning them to their elegant original designs. The impressive results highlight the heritage and architecture of the area as the activities inside its buildings have evolved from the butchers and bakers of days gone by to today’s start-up successes. The regeneration improvements were funded by Haringey Council, English Heritage and local traders. The traders have said that the positive transformation and the “shabby-turned-spectacular” shop fronts have had a domino effect along the high street. The improvements included: • reveal, repair and restoring historic features, such as corbels, pilasters, to renovate.sash windows – to make them attractive and distinctive • reducing clutter –satellite dishes, trailing cables and signage - to give customers a clear message • shop fronts – improving fascias and signage, in keeping with scale and architecture of the surrounding terrace. • reducing use of external roller shutters and blocked windows, which prevent window shopping and make the area feel unsafe or run down. Example 2: Green Lanes, Haringey Green Lanes, Harringay received £99,000 from Round One of the Outer London Fund, and £1.9m from Round Two, matched by £220,000 from Haringey, to help regenerate the area.
