Thanks.

Some way up north, we might hear unsophisticated type informing us of the population of a Continental city's having dined.

Monkseaton?

 

[Calthrop]

You're on the right track with the verb; but have the wrong tense / mode. Off-beam with the other segment. (The unsophisticated" bit is significant -- indicates one of the habits of a certain "tribe" which featured in an entry of yours a little while ago.)

Harringay Green Lanes?

Harringay Green Lanes?

You are a star, Sir - well done!
Rearrange any English (anagram). Novel was the anagram indicator.
I was just on the point of offering another clue which would have been: - From this station, back in the days, you could have watched Tigers, Canaries & Cheetahs racing. See Harringay Stadium.

Over to you @DaleCooper
