About Barnsbury N1
Barnsbury - A bland but elegant residential area lying between Caledonian Road and Upper Street, Barnsbury has come to be seen as the spiritual homeland of New Labour, as Tony Blair lived at 1 Richmond Crescent before he became prime minister and it was in a nearby restaurant, Granita (at 127 Upper Street), that he and Gordon Brown agreed the deal whereby Blair would become Labour Party leader and Brown shadow chancellor in 1994. In the thirteenth century the land came into the possession of Ralph de Berners, which led to the coining of the name 'Barnsbury', but it remained an incon sequential semi-rural outpost until the building of Charles Barry's Holy Trinity church in 1824, following which a host of squares - Barnsbury, Cloudesley, Gibson, Lonsdale, the singularly gloomy Milner and Thornhill- were built for City gentlemen who could live in a refined semi-rural setting but still be able to walk to work. In the early twentieth century, as suburbia moved further away from central London following the development of the Underground network, Barnsbury gradually lost its status as a haven for the wealthy middle class. However, the absence of damage to its housing stock in the Second World War laid it open to 'rediscovery' in the 1960s and gentrification has since increased, making it again one of the most desirable addresses in inner London. Almeida Street, Barnsbury Almeida Theatre What became London's leading small theatre at the end of the twentieth century was built in the 1830S for the Islington Literary and Scientific Society, on what was then Wellington Street, and converted to the Wellington Music Hall when the society moved to Camden Road in 1871. The street was renamed Almeida Street in 1890 in honour of one of the Duke of Wellington's military victories, and the hall was taken over by the Salvation Army then and by Beck's Carnival Novelties as a warehouse in 1952. Beck's put it up for sale in 1971 when proposals for its future included a light entertainment centre, courtesy of the former Goon Harry Secombe, and an alternative theatre, the idea of the landlord of the nearby King's Head. But when neither plan was approved it instead became the Almeida Theatre, which opened with Glenda Jackson appearing in Howard Barker's Scenes from an Execution. In the 1990S major figures such as Harold Pinter, Glenda Jackson and Kevin Spacey enhanced the Almeida's reputation by performing in this unlikely non West End setting.
