Summary

Description
English: Founder's stock certificate of the Alexandra Palace Company for 10 preference shares of £10 each, issued 29 November 1873. In 1900 a charitable trust was formed which bought the building and park to keep them "for the free use and recreation of the general public for ever". The predecessor company was the Alexandra Park Company, founded in 1863. It bought 220 acres in North London to build a racecourse, cricket ground and other facilities. The 1862 Great Exhibition buildings were rebuilt there in 1873 and renamed Alexandra Palace. Acquired by Trustees in 1900 and by Greater London Council in 1965.
