Sunday May 4th 11:00 - 13:00
Join Jane to admire and find out about a cross-section of stylish 1930’s buildings in N4 and N5. See how the innovative architecture of the interwar era still endures today.
You’ll hear about design, typography and letterform, and we’ll venture into some interiors including Arsenal FC’s iconic Highbury ground.
We’ll also visit other places of entertainment, well-proportioned residential and business properties, and hints of a renovation scheme that was never completed.
The tour starts near Arsenal station and lasts just under two hours. We finish a stone’s throw from Finsbury Park station. Â
