Tottenham old street name

Thanks for the replies.

I love the side-by-side maps view! That will come in handy, thanks

I usually check this:

but could see no mention of Wingmore Road.

I think that is because it’s name wasn’t changed, rather it ceased to exist.

Ah AlanBoyd, that explains it! Duh!

I have become a little obsessed with the fate of Wingmore Road.

1) wrt reply #5, looking at the bombing map at bombsight.org which covers the Blitz, no bombs are recorded for the precise area, although there are three just south of Gretton Road

2) There are newspaper items from 1954 and 1964 which refer to Wingmore Road, Tottenham (caution: there is another Wingmore Road, Herne Hill SE24).

3) Wingmore Road appears on this OS map surveyed 1953, revised 1963.

Thus, it seems that Wingmore Road did survive the war, and was still there in the early sixties.
