Tottenham Tales

For centuries, Tottenham Green has played host to progressive educators, revolutionary medical professionals and patrons of art.

From brewers, to bakers, to religious houses – this pocket of land is a glimpse into the diversity of Tottenham’s past and present.

Now converted to residences, the story of the Tottenham Jewish Hospital is one of community care, union solidarity and an unlikely relationship with a brewery!

In 1911, the building directly in front of you (no.366 High Road) became the home of the Tottenham Hebrew Congregation.

From the first history of Tottenham, to groundbreaking Arabic scholarship, stunning artwork and even a local ‘witch’ – All Hallows is the original parish church for Tottenham and has seen it all.

The people of Tottenham have never been afraid to speak up for a good cause! Local stories of activism and political campaigning have often centered on West Green Road.
