Harringay

Is this the world's longest-serving temporary ticket office? It was put up at Harringay after the original and grander Victorian entrance, dating from 1885, was destroyed by fire in the 1960s. Never intended to be permanent, it is still theoretically in use more than fifty years later, but usually closed and passengers use their Oyster cards on the machines instead. This station is now what could be termed an unstaffed halt, seen on 15th May 2021.
