Bus Garage, Stamford Hill (3)
This former bus garage in Rookwood Road operated about 66 trolleybuses on routes 543/643, 647, 649/649A and 683 between February 1939 and July 1961. Motorbuses then took over operating on routes 67, 149, 243/243A, 253 and N83. During the 1960s, the motorbuses operated were Routemasters, and the rear-engined Atlanteans and Fleetlines. Closure of this garage took place in November 2020 and its future is uncertain, although it may be demolished for housing. Update: this bus garage reopened on Saturday 24th February 2024 using 30 Wrightbus NBfL buses for route 254 (Holloway - Aldgate via Stamford Hill)
