Anyone live in or near Islington (or know about the parking there)?! 13:50 - Sep 5 with 4099 views | The_Flashing_Smile | Moving there next week and just discovered there are certain properties where you can't apply for a parking permit - and mine is one. So where the F am I supposed to put my car, Islington Council?! (I know about 50% of people reading this are itching to say Gatwick). I've applied to rent a garage but until that comes through, not sure what I'm supposed to do. Anyone know of a place even vaguely near Islington where parking permits aren't required? Or even better, anyone live in the area with a spare space on their drive for a couple of weeks? Bit of a long shot I know. | |

Anyone live in or near Islington (or know about the parking there)?! on 13:57 - Sep 5 with 2241 views | giant_stow | I was born and bred there, but too out of touch now. All I can suggest is ask around estates with those garages as someone might rent one privately if its empty. Which bit are you moving to? I'm a little jealous! Was there for a party last night and it's still got it, even if it is becoming a little full of bankers Edit: there are some light industry workshop places either side of the top of Caledonian Road- could try those.

You was born and bred in London but decided to align yourself with a load of slack jawed yokels. The mind boggles. | | | |

Otherwise, how often do you use the car? Might be a case of having to street park it as close as you’re able to get, until you manage to rent a garage. | |

Everyone else we're arsenal fans and I had to be different. One of the worst decisions of my life really. Dolly, there this too, but it looks bit pricey https://www.justpark.com/uk/parking/islington/?countryCode=uk/ | |

That's what I'm trying to do (the second bit) but everywhere's permit only on the streets. So yeah, hoping someone knows somewhere that's permit free, even if it's a bit of a trek. | |

You might have to go right to the outskirts for free street parking. Even Walthamstow is totally permitted up now. | |

Yes, pretty much everywhere around Islington and into Camden is all permits for anything over a few hours. | |

Don't actually know the area yet but it's close to, if not in, Andover Estate. | |

Upper Holloway then, don’t know the exact area but you’re well placed for Hampstead Heath (25 min walk or so) but make sure you look up the Parkland Walk and Woodberry Wetlands nature reserve - those are both close and not quite so obvious but really nice. https://www.parkland-walk.org.uk/ https://www.wildlondon.org.uk/woodberry-wetlands-nature-reserve | |
