About

Junction ward occupies a central slice of Islington, bounded by the Caledonian Road to the west and the railway lines emanating from King's Cross to the east. This creates a distinct urban landscape defined by transport corridors and residential streets. The area includes a significant portion of the Barnsbury conservation area, characterised by its ordered grid of Victorian terraced houses and garden squares.

The ward is anchored by the Caledonian Park and its landmark clock tower, a former market building. The area's social infrastructure is shaped by its proximity to several educational institutions and the presence of the Cally Pool and Gym. Residential life here is primarily centred around the local high streets and the community-focused amenities within the park's grounds.
