Highbury Corner is a large grass and tree covered roundabout located at the top of Upper Street that also feeds off onto St Paul’s Road, Cannonbury Road, and Holloway Road.

Highbury Corner was completely obliterated during the Second World War, reduced to a large crater by a German bomb. It was rebuilt from the forked shape it held then to the square surrounded by multiple lanes of trafic it is now.
