Winter Wanders: Up (and around) Upper Street

Join us on a winter wander up our favourite high street

From Cow Town to quirky Canonbury, for hundreds of years Islington has attracted more than its fair share of intriguing personalities: artists and art collectors, novelists and non-conformers, philanthropists, philanderers and puppeteers.

Their stories help to explain why Islington is such a cool and exciting place to live, work and play.

Start your New Year's Eve celebrations by joining Carolyn and Maxine on a winter wander up Upper Street and around Canonbury and let us introduce you to some of our favourite Islington rebels, reformers and eccentric characters.
