It is not to be confused withCrouch End Hill which runs betweenCrouch End andHornsey Rise. (The two roads meet at a "y" junction in Crouch End and together the two routes constitute the southern access toCrouch End Broadway).
The street has arailway station of the same name on the Islington (south) slope of the hill, which is served by theGospel Oak to Barking line. It is served byLondon Buses route W7.
Crouch Hill crosses over theParkland Walk, a public foot and cycle path and linear park that stretches fromFinsbury Park toAlexandra Palace, and follows some of the course of theNorthern Heights planned rail extension to theNorthern line, abandoned on 9 February 1954.
In 1974, rooms in a house on the Islington side of Crouch Hill were rented byIRA members who were subsequently arrested at the end of theBalcombe Street Siege.[1]
