This short street off Richmond Avenue leads to part of the New River College, in use on this date as a polling station. There were no elections in London but polling stations were open for the referendum on the alternative vote (AV) system. Interestingly, Islington was one of only ten local authority areas in the UK to vote 'yes'.
