Yes, if you look back at old maps, you can see how large the open land, of which what is now Lordship Rec was a part, once was, including the land the estate is on now:

If you like maps have you seen the 1619 map of Tottenham? It's very cool if you know the area: you can find farms that are now street names and courses of buried rivers.

Yes, I love maps, including tracking the gradual development of an area using old maps. I can't remember if I'd seen this one before, but I may have done, although I don't know Tottenham well.
