Discover pioneer nurses, Shirley Bassey and Latin American incomers in Tottenham’s vibrant past and present

Discover the heritage behind two railway stations in Tottenham and the people who have made their home here – from singer Shirley Bassey to leprosy nurse Kate Marsden and black MP Bernie Grant. South Tottenham was developed rapidly in the nineteenth century but had ancient roots with a mediaval high cross and settlement of Quakers. Today Ward’s Corner is a focal point for Latin Americans and the African Caribbean heritage is evident in West Green Road shops.
