Crouch End: Former railway line
Image: © Nigel Cox Taken: 20 Jun 2007
This is the trackbed of the former Great Northern Railway line from Finsbury Park to Alexandra Palace via Highgate, as viewed looking west under the Crouch End Hill road bridge, from the site of the former Crouch End railway station. The track was lifted in 1972, some 18 years after the station closed. The trackbed is now a public footpath called Parkland Walk and the whole of the former railway property is the Railway Fields Local Nature Reserve.
