Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!
Can You Explain Why?
Nothing of earth-shattering importance here, just idle curiosity. Walking along Green Lanes the
The other day, just north of the junction with West Green Road, I noticed a series of bollards tight up against the walls to the properties opposite Duckett's Common. Normally you'd expect to see bollards of this type at the kerbside, keeping traffic off the pavement. Why are they positioned where they are? I wonder what purpose they serve?

No, I get why they did this this. I imagine the space had been used for off-street parking. The bollards prevent that. What do the Duckett's Green bollards do?

I think John's point is probably that they've blocked themselves in ...
No idea about the other bollards. Presume it's not possible that the wall next to them has been moved forward at some point??

I have seen the council put bollards like these right up against someone's drive if they have not paid to have a lowered curb to prevent them from using the drive until they pay for a lowered curb. Have seen it done to 2 separate properties all I can think is maybe this place had a drive then put a wall in maybe ?
