'Islington' was known by the ale-swilling Anglo-Saxons as 'Gislandune' (meaning 'Gisla's hill') and is recorded in the Domesday book as Iseldone, when it's land in the forest of Middlesex was held by the canons of St. Pauls.
By the mid-16th century, the hilltop village of 'merry Islington' was noted for it's handsome mansions, gardens, orchards, good dairy farms and pure water from it's springs (rather like it is today).
By the late-eighteenth century, Islington was still little more than a cluster of houses grouped around the village (Islington) green, with the smaller, distant hamlets of Holloway and Canonbury nearby.

I was saddened to hear of Nicolas Walter's death (Obituaries, March 13), as one who greatly valued - and invariably agreed with - his lucid critique of all religion, not least through his regular contributions in the Guardian and Statesman's letters columns.
For his "saintly" struggle up and down those four flights without the use of his legs, but as much for his huge contribution to British humanism and so many humane causes, I give thanks, along with many others.
If he will forgive the epitaph, for once, Deo gratias for the Angel of Islington.

However, the London Plan in 2004 defined the Central London sub-region as comprising the boroughs of Kensington and Chelsea, Camden, Islington, Wandsworth, Lambeth, Southwark and the City of Westminster, omitting the City of London itself.
