Tufnell Park
Islington, London
Tufnell Park sits between Kentish Town and Holloway, entirely within a conservation area, a dense mid-Victorian ward of London stock-brick terraces climbing toward Junction Road. Six listed buildings include the Grade II Odeon Cinema, the Grade II 23 Carleton Road and the Grade II St George's Theatre. Public transport is good via Tufnell Park tube on the Northern line and frequent buses along Junction Road, twenty-eight outstanding schools lie within reach, and the food-and-drink scene along Fortess Road and Brecknock Road is steady and local. The drawbacks are pronounced: green cover within the ward is essentially nil, with the largest named space at just 0.1 hectares and residents walking to Hampstead Heath or Waterlow Park; air quality is poor thanks to Junction Road and Holloway Road; and the planning pipeline is essentially empty, keeping supply very tight.
