West Green
Haringey, London
PocketsDownhills Park (Belmont Recreation Ground · Lordship Recreation Ground · Moselle Brook · Belmont Road)Lordship Lane & Broadwater Farm (Lordship Recreation Ground · Downhills Park · Moselle Brook · east)
West Green sits between Tottenham and Turnpike Lane in central Haringey, a diverse residential ward with the entire area inside a conservation area. The listed-building set of five entries includes the Grade II Church of St Benet Fink, its Vicarage and the Grade II Mosaic Mural at Tangmere House, with the substantial 23.2-hectare Lordship Recreation Ground anchoring 41 hectares of green space in the ward. Forty outstanding-rated schools sit within reach, one of the deepest education footprints in this batch, and the nonFood venue count of 128 reflects a healthy high-street offer. The drawbacks are specific. Safety scores sit at 58, respectable but not strong, pollution scores are weak at 29 reflecting the Seven Sisters Road corridor, and public-transport access is only moderate, anchored by Turnpike Lane on the Piccadilly line rather than Tube access from every part of the ward. Housing affordability is tighter than the outer-Haringey average.

West Green, quick answers
- Is West Green safe?
- West Green scores 57 for safety, based on street-level recorded crime (police.uk) — safer than most of London. The score weighs personal safety, property crime and anti-social behaviour separately rather than ranking on one raw total, so the mix of crime matters as well as the volume.

Its strongest suits are nature access (74) and education (66); its weakest is area development (2). Whether it suits you depends on what you weight — the same data re-ranked around your own priorities can read very differently.

- Is West Green expensive to buy in?
- Relative to the rest of London, West Green is among London's pricier areas: its purchase-affordability score is 7/20, where higher means cheaper per square foot (HM Land Registry sold prices matched to floor areas).
