Priory Road alongside Priory Park
Priory Park was established in two phases. The eastern side of the park next to Middle Lane was the first part to be established when in 1891 farmland was purchased by the Hornsey Local Board from the local landowner Colonel Warner for the establishment of a park for people's recreational use. An additional three acres were then bought from another local landowner, Mr Linzee, and the laying out of the park began in 1896. 'Middle Lane Pleasure Grounds' were completed in 1899. The creation of Priory Park continued in 1926 with the purchase of land known as Lewcock's Fields by the Borough of Hornsey. The combined open space then became known as 'The Priory Park'. Despite the name, there has never been a priory here. The name is taken from the large estate which once covered this area and the 19th century mansion which stood within it. The estate was owned by the Warner family who had family connections to the Linzees.
This view just outside the northern boundary looks along Priory Road in the direction of Turnpike Lane station.
