Woodside is a compact ward in the London Borough of Haringey, sitting on the eastern edge of North London around the busy town centre of Wood Green. It functions as a local transport and retail hub, served by Wood Green tube station on the Piccadilly line and a dense network of buses, and lies within easy reach of green spaces such as Alexandra Palace.
Once a 19th‑century suburban growth area, Woodside today is socially and culturally diverse, with a mix of Victorian terraces, interwar and post‑war estates and newer developments. The ward has a lively high street and market culture, active community groups and ongoing regeneration projects aimed at improving housing and commercial space, while also facing common urban pressures around housing affordability and crowding.
