This Turkish mosque (behind the wall) and cultural centre was built in 1992 and occupies a triangular site at 1a Clissold Road that was formerly the site of stables belonging a large house that is now gone. Clissold Road itself was constructed in the 1880s to house prosperous families, and although the end house here looks original it is in fact a replica designed to match its neighbours.
