Seven Sisters

Haringey

Named after a ring of seven trees on Page Green.

Legend says that in the 14th century seven sisters, about to go their separate ways, planted seven elms in a circle round a walnut tree; parts of the story are mythical. The clump was known as the Seven Sisters by 1732. Sisters have replanted the ring several times since, most recently with hornbeams in 1996 or 1997.
