As far as conveyancing in Islington is concerned, registration is no faster or slower than anywhere else in England and Wales. Rather than based on location, timeframes can vary subject to who lodges the application, whether it is in order and if the Land registry have to notify any interested persons or bodies.

Over the last few months I have been searching for a leasehold apartment up to £235,500 and found one round the corner in Islington I like with a park and station in the vicinity, however it's only got 61 years unexpired on the lease. There is not much else in Islington for this price, so just wondered if I would be making a mistake acquiring a short lease?
Should you require a home loan the remaining unexpired lease term may be a potential deal breaker. Discount the offer by the amount the lease extension will cost if it has not already been discounted. If the current owner has owned the premises for a minimum of twenty four months you can request that they commence the lease extension formalities and pass it to you. You can add 90 years to the existing lease term with a zero ground rent applied. You should speak to your conveyancing lawyer concerning this matter.
