It was created in 1965 by the amalgamation of three former boroughs. It shares borders with six other London boroughs.

==History==
===Toponymy===
The names ''Haringey'', ''[[Harringay]]''<ref>''[[Harringay]]'' is an area of London within the London Borough ''Haringey''. The two differently spelt words describe different places and they are not interchangeable.</ref> and ''[[Hornsey]]'' in use today are all different variations of the same Old English: ''Hæringeshege''.  Hæring was a [[Anglo-Saxons|Saxon]] chief who lived probably in the area around [[Hornsey]]. ''Hæringeshege'' meant Hæring's enclosure and evolved into ''Haringey'', ''[[Harringay]]'' and ''[[Hornsey]]''.
[[File:Haringey from Alexandra Palace.jpg|thumb|left|South-west Haringey with the [[City of London|City]] in the background, from [[Alexandra Palace]], one of the [[List of highest points in London|highest points in London]].]]
In the [[Last Glacial Maximum]], Haringey was at the edge of a huge glacial mass that reached as far south as [[Muswell Hill]].<ref name="Madge">{{cite book |last=Madge |first=Sidney J. |title=The Early Records of Harringay alias Hornsey |publisher=Public Libraries Committee Hornsey |year=1938}}</ref> There is evidence of both [[Stone Age]] and [[Bronze Age]] activity.<ref name=County>{{cite book|last = T. F. T. Baker & C. R. Elrington (Editors) |title = A History of the County of Middlesex, Volume 8: Islington and Stoke Newington Parishes|publisher = British History Online |url=http://www.british-history.ac.uk/source.asp?pubid=30 | year = 1985}}</ref>

===Background===
In the [[Iron Age]] and [[Ancient Rome|Roman]] periods, Haringey was peopled by a [[celts|Celtic tribe]] called the [[Catuvellauni]]{{cn|date=May 2025}}, whose extensive lands centred on [[Hertfordshire]] and [[Middlesex]]. The Romans' presence is evidenced chiefly by the roads they built through the area. [[Tottenham High Road]] was part of the main Roman thoroughfare of [[Ermine Street]]. There have also been Roman finds in the borough which suggests possible Roman settlement.{{cn|date=May 2025}}

In the 5th and 6th centuries after the [[History of Anglo-Saxon England|Saxon]] invasions the settlement of '''Haeringehaia''' was founded; its name coming from the [[Old English]] ''haeringe'' meaning a "meadow of hares".<ref>{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=dpcjAQAAMAAJ&dq=haringey+etymology&pg=PA421 | title=The Environs of London: Middlesex | year=1811 | publisher=T.

Davies }}</ref><ref>{{cite book | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=hekVAAAAYAAJ&dq=haringey+etymology&pg=PA5 | title=The History, Topography, and Antiquities of Highgate, in the County of Middlesex: With Notes on the Surrounding Neighbourhood of Hornsey, Crouch End, Muswell Hill, Etc | year=1888 | publisher=Subscription }}</ref>{{Contradictory inline|reason=Here _hæring(e)_ refers to hares directly; three paragraphs above it is a personal name.|date=July 2025}}

Haringey remained a rural area until the 18th century when large country houses close to London became increasingly common.{{cn|date=May 2025}} The coming of the railways from the mid-nineteenth century onwards led to rapid urbanisation; by the turn of the century much of Haringey had been transformed from a rural to an [[Urbanization|urbanised]] environment.{{cn|date=May 2025}}

===Administrative history===
The area of the modern borough broadly corresponds to the two [[ancient parish]]es of [[Tottenham]] (which covered most of the area) and [[Hornsey]] in the south-west. Both parishes were historically in the county of [[Middlesex]], with Tottenham being in [[Edmonton Hundred]] and Hornsey in [[Ossulstone Hundred]]. Ossulstone was later split into divisions for certain administrative functions, and Hornsey was included in its [[Finsbury division]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Hornsey St Mary Ancient Parish / Civil Parish |url=https://visionofbritain.org.uk/unit/10071811 |website=A Vision of Britain through Time |publisher=GB Historical GIS / University of Portsmouth |access-date=19 May 2024}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Tottenham Ancient Parish / Civil Parish |url=https://visionofbritain.org.uk/unit/10164527 |website=A Vision of Britain through Time |publisher=GB Historical GIS / University of Portsmouth |access-date=19 May 2024}}</ref>

The ancient parishes provided a framework for both civil (administrative) and ecclesiastical (church) functions, but during the 19th century there was a divergence into distinct civil and ecclesiastical parish systems. The ecclesiastical parishes were gradually sub-divided to better serve the needs of a growing population, while the civil parishes continued to be based on the ancient parishes. The civil parish of Tottenham was made a [[Local board of health|local board district]] in 1850, with an elected board overseeing public health and responsible for the provision of infrastructure.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Lawes |first1=Edward |title=The Act for Promoting the Public Health, with notes |date=1851 |pages=258 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=MRJXAAAAcAAJ&pg=PA258 |access-date=19 May 2024}}</ref>

Similar [[Local board of health#Local Government Act 1858|local government districts]] were created for [[South Hornsey]] in 1865,<ref>{{London Gazette|issue=22985|page=3306|date=30 June 1865}}</ref> and for the rest of Hornsey parish in 1867.<ref>{{London Gazette|issue=23290|page=4475|date=13 August 1867}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |title=A History of the County of Middlesex: Volume 6 |date=1980 |publisher=Victoria County History |location=London |pages=101–103 |url=https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/middx/vol6/pp101-103 |access-date=19 May 2024}}</ref> The boundary between the Hornsey and South Hornsey districts was adjusted in 1874 to follow the [[Seven Sisters Road]].<ref>{{London Gazette|issue=27567|page=3922|date=28 June 1903}}</ref> The Tottenham district was divided in 1888, when its western part was made a separate district called Wood Green.<ref>{{cite web |title=Tottenham Local Board (Division of District) Act 1888 |url=https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukla/Vict/51-52/187/contents/enacted |website=legislation.gov.uk |publisher=The National Archives |access-date=19 May 2024}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |title=Kelly's Directory of Middlesex |date=1899 |page=400 |url=https://specialcollections.le.ac.uk/digital/collection/p16445coll4/id/50342/rec/1 |access-date=19 May 2024}}</ref>

The four districts of [[Municipal Borough of Hornsey|Hornsey]], South Hornsey, [[Municipal Borough of Tottenham|Tottenham]] and [[Municipal Borough of Wood Green|Wood Green]] were each reconstituted as [[Urban district (England and Wales)|urban districts]] under the [[Local Government Act 1894]]. South Hornsey Urban District was abolished in 1900 when it was absorbed into the [[Metropolitan Borough of Stoke Newington]]. Hornsey Urban District was incorporated to become a [[municipal borough]] in 1903,<ref>{{cite web |title=Hornsey Urban District / Municipal Borough |url=https://visionofbritain.org.uk/unit/10186377 |website=A Vision of Britain through Time |publisher=GB Historical GIS / University of Portsmouth |access-date=19 May 2024}}</ref> as were Wood Green in 1933,<ref>{{cite web |title=Wood Green Urban District / Municipal Borough |url=https://visionofbritain.org.uk/unit/10173140 |website=A Vision of Britain through Time |publisher=GB Historical GIS / University of Portsmouth |access-date=19 May 2024}}</ref> and Tottenham in 1934.<ref>{{cite web |title=Tottenham Urban District / Municipal Borough |url=https://visionofbritain.org.uk/unit/10001444#tab02 |website=A Vision of Britain through Time |publisher=GB Historical GIS / University of Portsmouth |access-date=19 May 2024}}</ref>

The modern borough was created in 1965 under the [[London Government Act 1963]], covering the combined area of the three municipal boroughs of [[Municipal Borough of Hornsey|Hornsey]], [[Municipal Borough of Tottenham|Tottenham]] and [[Municipal Borough of Wood Green|Wood Green]]. The area was transferred from [[Middlesex]] to Greater London to become one of the 32 London Boroughs.<ref>{{cite book | first=Frederic |last=Youngs | title=Guide to the Local Administrative Units of England | volume=I: Southern England | year=1979 | publisher=[[Royal Historical Society]] | location=London | isbn=0-901050-67-9}}</ref> The new borough was given the name Haringey, which was an old name for Hornsey.

===Physical geography===
Haringey is a borough of contrasts geographically. From the wooded high ground around [[Highgate]] and [[Muswell Hill]], at {{Convert|426.5|ft|m|1}}, the land falls sharply away to the flat, open low-lying land beside the [[River Lea]] in the east. 60 hectares within the borough are designated as part of the [[Metropolitan Green Belt]].

Haringey shares borders with six other London boroughs. Clockwise from the north, they are: [[London Borough of Enfield|Enfield]], [[London Borough of Waltham Forest|Waltham Forest]], [[London Borough of Hackney|Hackney]], [[London Borough of Islington|Islington]], [[London Borough of Camden|Camden]], and [[London Borough of Barnet|Barnet]]. It covers an area of more than {{Convert|11|sqmi|km2|1}}.<ref name="haringey.gov.uk"/> Some of the more familiar local landmarks include [[Alexandra Palace]], [[Bruce Castle]] and [[Tottenham Hotspur Football Club]].

Haringey has {{convert|600|acre|km2}} of parks, recreation grounds and open spaces<ref name = opspace>{{Cite web|url=https://www.haringey.gov.uk/libraries-sport-and-leisure/parks-and-open-spaces|title=Parks and Open Spaces &#124; Haringey Council|website=www.haringey.gov.uk}}</ref> which make up more than 25% of its total area.<ref name=Office/> They include both smaller local areas and large green areas which provide an amenity for Londoners beyond the borough's boundaries. Local Nature Reserves and a number of conservation areas can also be found in the borough. The borough is also home to five distinct ancient woods. These are [[Highgate Woods]], [[Queen's Wood]], [[Coldfall Wood]], [[Bluebell Wood, London|Bluebell Wood]] and North Wood.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.muswell-hill.com/muswell/history/woodland/ |title=The Natural History of Haringey, David Bevan |publisher=Muswell-hill.com |date=31 March 1992 |access-date=15 September 2010}}</ref>

The borough has achieved [[Green Flag award|Green Flag]] status for 25 of its parks, meaning they are judged to be welcoming, safe and well-managed, with active community involvement.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/server/show/nav.00100200800k00a006|archive-url=https://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20060715191102/http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/server/show/nav.00100200800k00a006|url-status=dead|archive-date=2006-07-15|title=Green Heritage Sites : Green Heritage Sites : Public Parks and Open Spaces : Historic Parks & Gardens : Conservation : Research & Conservation : English Heritage|website=webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk}}</ref>

Unlike most other London boroughs, it was decided not to create arms based on the charges in the coats of arms of the former boroughs.<ref name=civic>{{Cite web|url=http://www.civicheraldry.co.uk/great_london.html#haringey+lb|title=CIVIC HERALDRY OF ENGLAND AND WALES - GREATER LONDON REGION|website=www.civicheraldry.co.uk}}</ref> The coat of arms contains black and gold, representing stability, a cogwheel for industry and a rising sun for the new borough.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.haringey.gov.uk/index/news_and_events/fact_file/historyofharingey/coat_of_arms.htm |title=Coat of Arms |publisher=London Borough of Haringey |access-date=23 December 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060506022144/http://www.haringey.gov.uk/index/news_and_events/fact_file/historyofharingey/coat_of_arms.htm |archive-date=6 May 2006 }}</ref>

The borough has a simple [[badge (heraldry)|badge]] described as "Eight Rays" [as in the arms].<ref name=civic/> A flag is used which looks like a [[banner of arms]] but with the [[tincture (heraldry)|tincture]]s reversed, so that it has eight black rays on a yellow field. The rays are also a symbol of the world's first regular high-definition television transmissions in 1936 from the mast of [[Alexandra Palace]], one of the landmarks in the Borough of Haringey.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.fotw.info/flags/gb-e-gla.html#haringey|title=London (England): Haringey|publisher=[[Flags of the World (website)|Flags of the World]]|website=Flags of the World|author=Jonathan Dixon|date=31 August 2006|access-date=22 December 2013}}</ref>

The arms is used in the mayoral regalia of the borough. The mayoral chain has the heraldic achievement hanging in a badge made out of 18 k gold and enamel, with the text "The London Borough of Haringey MCMLXV". The chain has stylized H's and hares sitting within laurel wreaths. The hares represent the name of the borough, since Haringey is believed to mean "a meadow of Hares".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.sheilapeacock.co.uk/chain.htm|title=The Mayoral Regalia|website=www.sheilapeacock.co.uk|publisher=Official homepage of former Mayor Sheila Peacock|access-date=22 December 2013}}</ref>
