Stoke Newington is a villagelike residential area with indie shops, hip global eateries, chic cafes, and bars on Stoke Newington Church Street. The busy High Street is home to local stores, kebab houses, and traditional pubs, while leafy Clissold Park has lakes, a skatepark, a large paddling pool, and an animal enclosure with deer and goats. Paths meander amid ornate tombs in Victorian-era Abney Cemetery.
