Haringey Borough Football Club are an English football club based in Tottenham in the London Borough of Haringey. Formed in 1973 by a merger of Edmonton and Wood Green Town,^[2] the club are currently members of the Essex Senior League.

History

Tufnell Park were established in 1907 and joined the London Spartan League in 1910. In 1912 they switched to the Athenian League, which they won in 1913–14.^[3] After World War I they joined the Isthmian League, and reached the final of the FA Amateur Cup in the 1919–20 season, losing 1–0 to Dulwich Hamlet.

In 1950 the club merged with Edmonton Borough to form Tufnell Park Edmonton. In 1952 the club left the Isthmian League to join the Spartan League, before switching to the Delphian League in 1954.^[4] In 1960 the club was renamed Edmonton. In the 1962–63 season the league was abandoned due to the weather and an emergency competition was organised, which saw Edmonton win the Western Section champions, and then overall champions after beating Hertford Town 5–2 on aggregate in a championship play-off.^[5] The following season they rejoined the Athenian League and were placed in Division Two. A second-place finish in 1969–70 saw them promoted to Division One.

In 1973 the club merged with Wood Green Town, which had been a breakaway from Tufnell Park in 1911, playing as Tufnell Spartans until 1920, and moved to Wood Green's Coles Park.^[2] The new club was named Edmonton & Haringey, before adopting its current name in 1976.^[6]

In 1984 the club joined Division Two North of the Isthmian League. They left the league in 1988 and had a season without playing, before joining the Premier Division of the Spartan League in 1989. They were renamed Tufnell Park in 1995, but changed back to Haringey Borough after a season.^[7]

The club was transferred to the Essex Senior League for the 2013-14 season, where their tenants Greenhouse London also play.^[8] On the 18th April 2015 Haringey Borough FC clinched the Essex Senior League trophy with a 3-2 victory over Bowers & Pitsea^[1] and gained promotion to the Isthmian League Division One North.
