Wanstead Grotto project

A wonderful background in the FT to this most amazing east London site.

We can’t wait to see the first phase of restoration work start in March. Neglected and out of bounds for generations, there are few sites in London ‘at risk’ and with more to offer. We’re thrilled to have got this one up and running and look forward to telling its story….

Thanks to the Friends of Wanstead Parklands for championing the Grotto for so many years.
