Finsbury Park is more than just a park. Did you know…
Underneath the park lies a huge reservoir.
Built in the 1860s, it used to hold 5 million gallons of water.
The reservoir is not currently in use; find out more about the history as Matt Emmett describes visiting the site in 2019 (here).
The site featured in James Bond/Skyfall, Paddington, and Sherlock Holmes.
