I’m sure for many Haringey residents around Crouch End, the site of the former Crouch Hill Recreation Centre (just off Crouch Hill, by Parkland Walk) feels “local”. However, it being the other side of the council boundary – and covered by different local newspapers – means we often don’t get all the news on what’s happening there.

So here’s a quick remedy – Islington Council is drawing up plans to introduce a new school on the site, a refurbished play area and youth centre and various other changes. You can read about them on the Islington website – which also gives details of how to submit any feedback you’ve got on the plans.
