Default How do you spell Haringey?

The local council uses Haringey -http://www.haringey.gov.uk/but the
railways use Harringay and I've just used (probably wrongly) Haringay.


Railways are well known for having their own dictionary as shown by the way
they spell station names- e.g. Whittle sea for whittlesey, Fulbourne for
Fulbourn

Never rely on railway spelling

Although in this case they are correct. There are many more stations
in the borough of Haringey.
