Hornsey Borough Council Building Remnant
This structure which bears the Arms of Hornsey Borough Council is all that remains of the 1930's Hornsey Public Baths and Washhouse demolished for the new housing and Sainsbury's store development. This small remnant was taken down and rebuilt in this position and seems now to house an electricity transformer. The Arms bears the inscription Fortior Quo Paratior, Latin for the better prepared, the stronger.
The building stands in the lowest point in the immediate area and is where once the New River flowed as it followed the contours of the landscape until the 1850's when it was rerouted alongside the new railway that is now the east coast mainline.

The Great Northern Railway Tavern, Hornsey N8
A grade II listed building from about 1900. To the right is Cross Lane, with the name of one of its once major addresses over the entrance. The Smithfield Refrigerator Works was on a site to the west of the lane which is now redeveloped as flats. Little seems to be available about the activities of the company, and when it closed down here is uncertain, possibly the 1960s - the large premises were mapped as a warehouse by the 1970s/80s. It produced commercial refrigerators (at least) under the name Smithfridge.
