The Tottenham & Edmonton Dispensary stood on the High Road from 1864, 35 years before Spurs moved to White Hart Lane. Dispensaries were vital places for people to obtain access to medicines and visit doctors free of charge, or for a small membership, before the introduction of the National Health Service. As fans gathered for football matches next door, so too people queued outside the Dispensary waiting to be seen in the surgeries or to pick up prescriptions
The building later became a store for Spurs merchandise and a base for selling programmes on matchdays. Today, its façade has been retained and restored within the Spurs Shop at the Tottenham Experience, where fans are able to get their replica shirts printed.
