THIS DAY LAST YEAR: 20 FEB 2017<\/b> – I walked around Highbury Fields, Arsenal Stadium, Gillespie Park, and Finsbury Park.<\/p>\n

\"Untitled\"<\/p>\n

Highbury Fields is quite small; it is really not very impressive, just a small bit of clod inbetween densely packed houses.<\/p>\n

\"Untitled\"<\/p>\n

\"Untitled\"<\/p>\n

There were some beautifully painted walls along the way<\/p>\n

And a cute little gap between houses at a T-junction<\/p>\n

Emirates Stadium (Arsenal’s home ground) is something I always see on the train but never really bothered to walk into before.<\/p>\n

\"Untitled\"<\/p>\n

The main feature of this space is that it is incredibly windy.<\/p>\n

I don’t think I’ll want to be here on game days if this is any indication of the masses of crowds…<\/p>\n

Gillespie Park<\/p>\n

\"Untitled\"<\/p>\n

A very linear Park<\/p>\n

\"Untitled\"<\/p>\n

With corners you could get lost in<\/p>\n

History of the park<\/p>\n

Linear walk<\/p>\n

Gate<\/p>\n

It begins to look like parts of Finsbury Park along the tracks<\/p>\n

\"Untitled\"<\/p>\n

Tumbling right back into Finsbury Park across the road<\/p>\n
