• vertical climbing trees 

Braille garden

George Meehan House 

The house was built as a private home in the Italianate style around 1865. It’s now used as council offices and houses the borough’s registry offices.  

Mushroom House 

Mushroom House is a grade II listed building. It’s one of Haringey’s oldest buildings. It was formerly the lodge to the local manor house, Chitts Hill, which was demolished in the 1890s.
