About this Archway map poster
Archway is a district of north London in the borough of Islington, centred on the junction where Holloway Road, Highgate Hill and Archway Road meet. On a map the area is a dense mesh of Victorian terraces, crescents and small squares, rising steeply toward Highgate to the north. Highgate Cemetery and the edge of Hampstead Heath lie just to the west, adding large green shapes to the frame.
The area takes its name from the archway built in the early nineteenth century to carry Hornsey Lane over the new road cut through the hill. It was later replaced by the iron bridge that still stands today. Nearby, a stone on Highgate Hill marks the spot where, according to legend, Dick Whittington heard the bells calling him back to London.
An Archway map poster shows how the road cutting divides the hill, with the bridge crossing high above the traffic and terraced streets fanning out on both sides. The Northern line station sits at the busy junction below. It is a compact, intricate map that captures the particular character of north London's hills and the streets that climb them.

Hornsey Lane Bridge
The Victorian bridge carries Hornsey Lane across the cutting high above the traffic, a short crossing that gives the district both its name and its best-known landmark.
Heath and cemetery
To the west, Highgate Cemetery, Waterlow Park and the edge of Hampstead Heath form wide green areas that balance the dense street pattern around the junction.

Why Archway
A map that means something
Archway is hung by Londoners who rented their first flat near the station, families who have lived on its terraces for decades and anyone who walks the Heath at weekends. The map is detailed enough to find your own street.
