Finsbury Park is an area in north London, England, which grew up around an important railway interchange near the convergence of the Boroughs of Islington and Hackney and is named after the park in Haringey.
Finsbury Park should not be confused with Finsbury, which is a district of Central London roughly three miles to the south, forming the south-eastern part of the London Borough of Islington.
The area is centred on Finsbury Park station, a major bus, rail and tube interchange near the southern end of the 46-hectare (110-acre) public park of the same name.
The neighbourhood includes part of Finsbury Park and Highbury West wards within the London Borough of Islington, part of Brownswood ward in the London Borough of Hackney, part of Stroud Green Ward and a very small part of Harringay ward in the London Borough of Haringey.
