Noel Park by Russell Avenue with some improvement work being undertaken

The junction of Lordship Lane and The Roundway (West Arm) from Downhills Way. This junction is on the boundary between postcodes N22 and N17.

The Noel Park Estate was built by the Artisan Company between 1881 and 1927. It was specifically designed to provide affordable and fashionable for working class families wishing to leave the inner city. It was designed by Rowland Plumbe and the estate holds some 2,000 properties. Plumbe designed the estate with five different classes of house. Although they vary in size all the houses were designed with front and back gardens. Each of the streets were given their own distinct look. Noel Park was named after Ernest Noel, Liberal MP and Chairman of the Artisan Company from 1880. The streets were named after board members and people connected to the Artisan Company, as well as prominent politicians of the time - hence Gladstone Avenue and Salisbury Road. Throughout the estate, except for corner houses, each house was built in pairs, with each sharing a porch. The estate was formally declared open on 4th August 1883 after 200 houses had been completed and another 400 were under construction. A ceremony was held on the site where St Mark's Church now stands. The church was consecrated on 1st November 1889 and by the turn of the 20th century had a congregation twice the size of any other church in Wood Green. In 1982 in recognition of its architectural and historic interest Noel Park was declared a Conservation Area. This photograph looks along Salisbury Road towards the junction with Hewitt Avenue.
