Tree and Bricks

Image: © Martin Addison Taken: 22 May 2009

Beside the Parkland Walk, near to the site of Crouch End Station on the dismantled Finsbury Park to highgate section of the Northern Heights branch. The red paint cannot hide the fact that the bricks are of the yellow type favoured by the Great Northern Railway for its buildings and are probably the remains of a signal box that existed here to control a crossover and access to a siding for coal wagons. The box closed in 1932 after colour light signalling was installed along the line.
