About your park
Tottenham Green (and Tottenham Green East) is an open space that is divided by the A10 that links central London with Tottenham.
The most imposing feature of the Green is the war memorial at the south. There is seating on both sides of the Green and a small play area in the Tottenham Green East. Every Sunday there is a produce market beside the Green on the Town Hall Approach Road, and several times a year there are larger events that occupy part of Tottenham Green.
More details about the facilities and management of Tottenham Green can be found in the Tottenham Green Management Plan 2019 (PDF, 1MB).
