Spensley Walk is "residents only" from 8.30am to 6.30pm Monday to Saturday. Parking is generally free in the surrounding streets after 5.30pm Mon-Fri and after 1.30pm on Saturdays.

Stoke Newington offers two "green routes" to our Shabbat services. So, if you are walking to shul then enjoy the expanse of Clissold Park. It contains a small zoo housing winged and four-legged creatures in pasture-like surroundings. Nearby you will find several acres of lush vegetation in Abney Park Cemetery. The latter is a Victorian garden cemetery and is now a designated local nature reserve and conservation area. You may prefer not to walk through a cemetery on Shabbat.
