The Prince of Wales pub (as was) Alexandra Road N15
This building, now used as flats, was the Prince of Wales pub until about fifteen years ago. It was my neighbour's local until he died seventeen years ago. It had a largely Irish clientele and my neighbour swore by the Guinness they poured there. I spoke with the guy in the photo who also remembered when it was a pub and was happy to be included in the shot.

Ugly Housing Development on Cornwall Road N15
This brutal development of affordable homes by the Mayor of London is so uncompromising and unsympathetic to its surroundings it makes me wince. The 1950's yellow brick Council flats to the left were built upon a site of Victorian houses destroyed in 1944 by a V1 rocket bomb and they have a gentle grace to their design. Why could the new development not have been blended in?

Old council sign on Cornwall Road
Tottenham council merged to form Haringey in 1965 when Greater London was created. It was not part of the pre-Worboys system as councils issued off-road signs such as this rather than the Department of Transport, and were not standardised like the others.

Tottenham Borough Council Sign Cornwall Road N15
Tottenham Borough Council disappeared in 1965 to be subsumed into the London Borough of Haringey. Here its neglected sign still stands warning that the riding of bicycles, tricycles or other similar machines on the footpath is prohibited and subject to a £2 penalty fine. Today this warning is ignored as the users of such machines plus e-scooters happily ride on the pavements without fear of sanction. The fine in 1965 would be about a tenth of an average national weekly wage so today about £60.
