About Finsbury

Finsbury is a village. Location: Islington, Greater London. Elevation: 33 m.

From Wikipedia

Finsbury is a district of North-Central London, forming the southeastern part of the London Borough of Islington. It borders the City of London. The Manor of Finsbury is first recorded as Vinisbir (1231) and means "manor of a man called Finn". Finsbury lay just outside Cripplegate (and on its later construction, Moorgate) in London Wall. At that time, much of the manor was part of the "great fen which washed against the northern wall of the City".
