EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historic Tottenham High Cross, taken in 1820 but printed around 1876. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, adding an air of mystery to its allure. Originally erected by Owen Wood between 1600 and 1609 as a marker for the center of Tottenham Village, the cross was later embellished in Gothic style in 1809. The photograph is featured in "Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, and Its Places" written by Edward Walford. Published by Cassell, Petter, Galpin & Co. , this book offers a fascinating glimpse into the city's past. In this monochrome depiction, we see men and women gathered around the ornate structure on a sunny day. The intricate railings surrounding the cross add to its decorative charm while highlighting its significance as a landmark within North London. This image transports us back to a time when Georgian architecture dominated England's urban landscape. It serves as a testament to Tottenham's rich history and cultural heritage. As we admire this vintage print captured over a century ago, we are reminded of how cities evolve over time while still preserving their unique character. This photo allows us to appreciate both the beauty of Tottenham High Cross itself and its place within London's ever-changing cityscape.
