In the early 1980s part of the old church on Crouch Hill was converted for use as a studio by [[Bura and Hardwick|Bob Bura and John Hardwick]], the animators who worked on [[Camberwick Green]], [[Captain Pugwash]] and [[Trumpton]]. It was named [[The Church Studios]], and in the 1990s the space was rented to [[Dave Stewart (Eurythmics)|Dave Stewart]] and [[Annie Lennox]] of the [[Eurythmics]] (but at the time was in the Tourists). Dave and Annie worked and rehearsed in the [https://www.britishrecordshoparchive.org/spanish-moon.html Spanish Moon] record shop, and lived in the flat above from 76 to 80, opposite what is now Sainsbury's (formerly the Co-op and before that a Budgens supermarket).{{Citation needed|date=July 2022}}

In the 1990s [[Bob Dylan]] worked on an album in the studio, and became so fond of the area he looked for a property in Crouch End. He was a regular at the now-closed Shamrat Indian restaurant.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Walker |first1=Nick |last2=Bennetto |first2=Jason |title=No direction home?
