A little history about Archway

The name of Archway comes from the Archway bridge built in part of south Highgate for the minor road between south Highgate and Crouch End, Hornsey in 1896, the predecessor of Hornsey Lane Bridge.

Efforts were made to build a tunnel were made more than once for the Highgate bypass, but these failed and collapsed. The first bridge of 1813 was built but demolished in 1901; its replacement is sometimes called suicide bridge after a spate of such incidents in the early 20th century dates from 1897. The minor road over is Hornsey Lane.

The official parishes and neighbourhoods within Archway are Highgate and Upper Holloway with a very small part of Islington. Upper Holloway has become in modern use generally restricted to the smaller catchment around its railway station and post office.

Seven Bus routes in London commence or end at Archway and the term became mainstream across most social classes after its tube station abandoned its previous names of Highgate and subsequently Highgate Archway and Archway Highgate.

In todays religious ecclesiastical parish system, Archway is split between Whitehall Park, Upper Holloway and St John the Evangelist, Upper Holloway.

The Archway Road is part of the A1 or Great North Road, one of the original toll roads. From 1813 - 1864, Archway was the site of a toll gate, where travellers had to pay for the next stage of their journey. A plaque on the block of flats in Pauntley Street commemorates the toll gate.

Highgate Hill, the road from Archway to Highgate village, was the route of the first motorised cable car in Europe operating between 1884 and 1909.

Legend has it that it was at Archway that Dick Whittington heard the Bow Bells ringing and returned to London. There is a statue on Highgate Hill to commemorate this event. Pauntley Street takes its name from the village of Pauntley in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, which is traditionally regarded as Dick Whittingtons birthplace.
