- History
- (The building at 287 High Road was formerly a pub called the Fisherman's Arms; at the time it closed as a public house, c2006, it was known as O'Rafferty's. Part of the building subsequently became Wood Green Police Station's satellite Public Counter c2010. Though not yet confirmed, it is therefore likely that the WW2 memorial was originally erected in the Wood Green Police Station at 347 High Road, Wood Green).
