Clyde Circus is seen here from Clyde Road. Clyde Circus has a circular group of houses in the middle with small back gardens and what looks like a central communal area. The central feature is Clyde Circus itself laid out in the late 18th century as the centre piece of a grand approach from Tottenham Green to the east to the former Downhills House to the west. The very interesting Haringey Council web site about the Conservation Area (of which Clyde Circus is the centre piece) has a series of Ordnance Survey Maps which show that although the Circus was here much earlier the houses were not built at the time of the 1894-96 Ordnance Survey Map but appeared on the 1915 Ordnance Survey Map.
