Demolished in 1956, Brook House is often overlooked as one of Tottenham’s great residences. There is a fascinating story of how the original 17th century building, which once stood near this site, developed over time.

An ‘Improved Public House’

Grade II listed and a brilliantly preserved example of the 'Brewers Tudor' style, the Beehive was built in the inter-war years to give a more reputable image to public houses.

A night on the tiles, a trip to the cinema, or perhaps dancing into the early hours? The history of entertainment on Bruce Grove is a colourful one, still traceable in the buildings you see here today.

This corner of Tottenham High Road is symbolic for so many reasons, not least for the imposingly beautiful architecture of the Co-operative building.
