Our book: A Park for Finsbury

2019: book to mark the 150th anniversary

THE park celebrated it’s 150 year anniversary year in 2019.

A number of well-attended events were held in the park to celebrate its history and discuss the role of public parks in modern day civic life.

Together with Haringey Council, the Friends produced and published a special book to help mark this milestone. We commissioned a former Chair of the Friends, Hugh Hayes, to update and refresh, A Park for Finsbury.

This excellent and extensively researched book on the history of Finsbury Park is available at local bookshops in North London, as well as local libraries near the park.
