Harringay online

Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

A film made as a preface to the Haringey Borough Plan of 1974, seeking rates payers opinions on the use of council cash and land. It begins by posing the question 'what is Haringey?' and using archival images from Bruce Castle Museum, maps and modern film footage shows how a primarily rural area developed into a busy urban settlement. It then turns to the questions of 'what will Haringey become? What can it?' and the role of the council in directing the Borough's future. A meeting of the council's Development Control panel is seen in progress discussing current pressing issues. 

Classic and with great music.
