Green Lanes (London)

Covering a distance of 6.3 miles (10.1 km)[1] between Newington Green and Winchmore Hill, it is one of the longest streets in the capital, passing through the N16, N4, N8, N13 and N21 postcode areas.

Whilst it is undeniably an ancient thoroughfare, the age and origin of Green Lanes is somewhat uncertain.

[2] Green Lanes[3] runs from Newington Green north along the western edge of Stoke Newington, thereby forming the border between Hackney and Islington, until it reaches Manor House at the eastern edge of Finsbury Park.

As it crosses the New River over Green Lanes Bridge, it enters the London Borough of Haringey, it then runs 1.4 miles (2.3 km)[4] through the neighbourhood of Harringay.

These were installed following a successful bid by Enfield Council for Mini Holland funding from Transport for London.
