About Crouch End

What are the main landmarks in Crouch End?

Crouch End centres on the Church of Holy Innocents, a landmark church at its heart. Priory Park anchors the green side of the quarter, and within it stands the Metcalf Memorial Drinking Fountain. Topsfield Hall and Stapleton Hall number among its recorded halls, while St Mary's Church holds in its churchyard a monument to Samuel Rogers and his family.

The names run deep.

What is the history of Crouch End?

Crouch End developed within the Hornsey postal district as London spread across the land north of the City of London, roughly five miles away. The change was gradual. Topsfield Hall and Stapleton Hall keep alive the older names of the area, and the streets around them filled in to form one of north London's urban villages inside the borough of Haringey.

Its growth ran outward rather than upward.

Where is Crouch End?

Crouch End lies in north London, in the western half of the borough of Haringey and within the Hornsey postal district, about five miles from the City of London.
