abstract Angel er et område i Islington i London. Navnet kommer fra vertshuset The Angel, som lå ved en tollport på Great North Road, på stedet hvor man nå finner krysset mellom Islington High Street og Pentonville Road; det brukes nå om området rundt dette krysset. G2
abstract The Angel was originally an inn near a toll gate on the Great North Road (at what is now the corner of Islington High Street and Pentonville Road), but now informally refers to this part of Islington in London . The corner itself is actually in Finsbury which was a separate borough until 1965 when the Metropolitan Borough of Finsbury merged with the Metropolitan Borough of Islington to form the London Borough of Islington. Thomas Paine may have stayed at the inn after he returned from France in 1790 and it is believed that he wrote passages of the Rights of Man whilst staying at the nearby Red Lion, now Old Red Lion, in St. John Street. The original building was rebuilt in 1819 and became a coaching inn; the first staging post outside of City of London. It became a local landmark and was mentioned in Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens "The coach rattled away and, turning when it reached the Angel at Islington, stopped at length before a neat house in Pentonville". A new building in pale terracotta stone with a corner cupola replaced the old building in 1899. From 1921 to 1959 the building was used as a Lyons Corner House and is now a Co-operative Bank, with ORC International, a market research agency, occupying the floors above the bank. A pub operated by JD Wetherspoon situated near the junction of Pentonville Road and Islington High Street goes by the name The Angel. In his book "The Inns and Taverns of Old London" published in 1909 Henry C. Shelley has the following to say of the inn: G2
