About Stoke Newington
Stoke Newington has been a settlement since Saxon times. The area developed rapidly in the Victorian era, with terraced houses built for middle-class commuters. Literary connections include Daniel Defoe and Edgar Allan Poe who attended school here.
Abney Park Cemetery, opened in 1840, is one of the "Magnificent Seven" Victorian cemeteries and now a nature reserve. The area has attracted creative and progressive residents throughout its history.
Today's "Stokey" is known for its bohemian atmosphere, independent boutiques, organic cafes, and young creative community. Church Street is the heart of the neighbourhood with farmers' markets and festivals throughout the year.
Victorian terraces offer excellent renovation potential, while warehouse conversions and new developments add contemporary options.
