Fortess Road, Tufnell Park. The astronaut is in a window of the Eleanor Palmer Primary School.

Lovely iron brackets. Check out the grillwork above the station sign.

I rode this bus often between Tufnell Park and Kings Cross.

Junction Road and some Lime bikes.

My first stop on Open House weekend was one street over from my AirBnB. This is the garden extension of a Victorian terrace house very similar to the one I stayed in.

Acland Burghley School, Camden, 1963-7 by Howell, Killick, Partridge & Amis, is listed at Grade II for the following principal reasons: * Architectural interest; the design’s bold elevational treatment and skilful handling of pre-cast concrete components and their finishes confer a strong aesthetic while respecting the wider Victorian townscape. The jewel-like, top-lit assembly hall is a particularly notable feature where the use of timber and concrete gives a rich texture; * Plan-form: the innovative plan, comprising three towers radiating from a central administration core with the linked assembly hall, remains relevant and fit for purpose, affording permeability and appropriate levels of accessibility combined with practical and humane functioning spaces; * Architects: Howell, Killick, Partridge and Amis were one of the country’s foremost post-war architectural practices with a number of listed educational buildings to their name; * Historic Interest: the London County Council was at the forefront of innovative architectural approaches to the design of non-selective secondary schools. Acland Burghley favourably compares with the listed Lilian Baylis and Haggerston Schools, and is a good example of a school commissioned from well-regarded architects during this formative period.

The kitchen has two glass walls that slide to open it up to the garden.

Garden level interior, looking toward the kitchen.

A five minute walk from my AirBnB. Tufnell Park Station, opened in 1907, is one of the classic oxblood red tile stations designed by Leslie Green.

My AirBnB was in this charming, quiet Victorian terrace block. I had a room, kitchenette and private toilet/shower room on the garden level.

The street where I stayed. This is the only street named Celia in Britain.
