What is The Angel, Islington?
'''The Angel''' was originally an [[inn]] near a [[toll gate]] on the [[Great North Road (United Kingdom)|Great North Road]] (at what is now the corner of Islington High Street and [[Pentonville Road]]). The term now informally refers to this part of [[Islington]] in [[London]]. The corner itself is actually in [[Finsbury]] which was a separate borough until 1965 when the [[Metropolitan Borough of Finsbury]] merged with the [[Metropolitan Borough of Islington]] to form the [[London Borough of Islington]]. ==Related pages== * [[Angel tube station]] == Other websites == * [http://www.angelislington.net/ Angel Islington info and directory] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100308024007/http://www.angelislington.net/ |date=2010-03-08 }} * [http://www.islington.gov.uk/ Islington Council] * [http://www.n7parish.net/weather/ Weather forecast for Islington] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050424112431/http://www.n7parish.net/weather/ |date=2005-04-24 }} {{coord|51.5321|-0.1066|region:GB_type:landmark|display=title}} {{LB Islington}} {{London districts}} {{UK-stub}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Angel Islington}} [[Category:London Borough of Islington]] [[Category:Areas of London]]
