Archway

Archway is a district within the London Borough of Islington in inner north London. It is situated on the A1 and centred on Archway Tower and tube station. Archway has seven small parks and two large parks.

The name originates from the Archway bridge which was built in part of south Highgate for the minor road in between south Highgate and Crouch End, Hornsey, in 1896. It had been attempted a number of times to construct a tunnel for the Highgate bypass, to join the Great North Road by avoiding the steep Highgate Hill and Highgate village's narrow roads. However, these tunnels failed on collapsing.

Archway designates the smaller than 0.4 square miles catchment of its underground station compared to all other stations. The official parishes and neighbourhoods within its definition are Highgate and Upper Holloway with a modest part of Islington. In modern times, Upper Holloway is generally restricted to the smaller catchment around its own railway station and post office.

Seven bus routes end or start at Archway and the term became popular amongst most Londoners when its tube station abandoned the preceding name of Highgate. The Archway Road is a part of the A1 or Great North Road, which is among the original toll roads. From 1813-1864, Archway was the location of a toll gate. A plaque on the block of flats at 1 Pauntley Street commemorates the gate.

We know all too well that human nature tends to prevail to overlook small electrical issues until it’s too late or probably gets out of hands. When this happens, not only will you have to spend more to get the issue resolved, but it may also lead to some damages to your property.

You may be tempted to think this is a lighbulb issue, but this type of decline in power is usually as a result of a loose wiring or faulty circuits which should not be ignored.
  • Regularly blown fuses. With the steady development in technology as well as electrical appliances within our houses, older style fuses that are not designed to contain this amount of electricity will end up blowing. If your fuse blows on a more regular basis, then there may be a need to upgrade them to more modern circuit breakers.
  • Lightbulbs burning out in their sockets. This is usually a sign of bigger issues in your wiring which is often caused by fluctuations in voltage.
  • Sparking outlets. These can be perfectly normal, but at times they can also be a clear signal of a potentially dangerous problem which should not be ignored.
