Dist:0.4km north<br/>The sub-surface areas of this station were tiled in biscuit coloured tiles lined with blue friezes. These were refurbished in 2005. The station tunnels have, in common with those of Turnpike Lane and Wood Green, a diameter of 7 metres and were designed for the greater volume of traffic expected. In contrast, Bounds Green and Southgate have only 6.4 metre diameter platform tunnels. The construction of "suicide pits" between the rails was at the time innovative. These were built in connection with a system of passageways under the platforms to give access to the track.

Dist:0.5km north<br/>Opened 19 September 1932 and named after a nearby public house. The station was equipped with nine street level entrances, two of which gave access to tram routes to and from Tottenham, Edmonton and Stamford Hill via tramway island exits into Seven Sisters Road. The last of these tram services were withdrawn in 1938 and replaced by Trolleybuses and the exits were removed in 1951. The image shows the main entrance, to the northwest of the A105 Green Lanes/A503 Seven Sisters Road junction, the ticket office is below ground.
