Smalley Close Smalley Close LONDON SOLD This wonderful two-bedroom apartment unfolds within a Grade II-listed townhouse in the centre of Stoke Newington. Surrounded by greenery, the home can be found on Smalley Close and has leafy views over Stoke Newington Common, as well as its own private, west-facing garden to the rear. Including an extensive basement level (which could be converted subject to the necessary permissions) the living space extends over 1,860 sq ft. The current owner has completed a sensitive restoration to create a light-filled maisonette – which arguably feels more like a house – that is wonderfully suited to contemporary life. +44 (0)20 3687 3071 — inigo.com — [email protected] Smalley Close LONDON SOLD Setting the Scene Listed in 1969, this three-storey terrace flanks one side of the verdant Stoke Newington Common. The terrace was built in the late 18th century, circa 1787; the houses are particularly notable for their handsome London stock-brick façades and large sash windows, each crowned by contrasting and decorative red brick. Originally called Cockhanger Green, the common was renamed as the area was developed during the Victorian era. It became Shacklewell Common, then Newington Common and is now the much-loved Stoke Newington Common, a stretch of land of around five acres and a lovely place to bask in the sun. The Grand Tour Entrance to the house is from Smalley Close, where a gate leads into the rear garden of the apartment. The lawn is framed with floral borders and has a recently added York stone pathway that leads to the maisonette. The front door opens into a hallway, where there is plenty of space for hanging coats and a guest WC to one side. Stairs lead up to the first floor and the main living spaces. To the right lies the kitchen, which contains freestanding French units in ‘Confetti’ pink with leather handles, and granite worktops. The current owner has employed a smart combination of open shelving and glazed cabinetry to display her crockery collection. To the front of the plan is the main living space, where original floorboards run underfoot and three sash windows frame views of the common, as well a flowering magnolia tree. Upstairs are two generous double bedrooms and a shared family bathroom, with a freestanding cast-iron bath and separate shower. The main bedroom is painted a lovely, muted Blue Vein by Paint & Paper Library, and has further sash windows that overlook the park. Wooden floorboards run throughout this floor too, leading into the second double bedroom with its Farrow & Ball, Setting Plaster and French Gray walls. +44 (0)20 3687 3071 — inigo.com — [email protected] Smalley Close LONDON SOLD Out and About Smalley Close is in a brilliantly vibrant area packed with cafes, restaurants, pubs, bars and shops. The apartment is close to Abney Park – a wild, woodland space – and minutes from the green expanse of Clissold Park. It is also within easy reach of the independent businesses of Stoke Newington and Newington Green; Esters and Jolene are particular neighbourhood favourites. Much-loved Church Street is nearby and is home to The Spence Bakery, Whole Foods and The Good Egg, as well as many other culinary delights. A short walk away is Primeur; recently described as “the perfect neighbourhood restaurant”, it serves modern European cuisine and natural wine on nearby Petherton Road. Stoke Newington and Rectory Road stations are close by; both run London Overground services to Liverpool Street in around 10 minutes or Seven Sisters in around four minutes, for connections to the Underground. A number of buses run into central London and the neighbouring Dalston area.

  • HACKNEY SOCIAL RADIO – the Story So Far June 2020 – April 2021
    HACKNEY SOCIAL RADIO – The Story So Far June 2020 – April 2021 SUMMARY OF ACHIEVEMENTS During the height of the first COVID-19 lockdown, from June to September 2020, we successfully produced 15 episodes for the first series of Hackney Social Radio – a community radio show created by older people, for older people, specifically aimed at the digitally isolated in the London Borough of Hackney. As the country went into the second lockdown, we re-launched for Series 2 with the intention of supporting our community of makers and listeners for as long as we could. We were fortunate to receive funding from the Henry Smith charity and CAF and will have created 35 episodes for our second series, which ends on 14th July 2021. To date we have produced 41 weekly 59-minute radio show, which broadcast every Wednesday at 11am. Programmes are transmitted through Resonance 104.4FM, played out on their online radio player, and available for ongoing playback through Mixcloud. We enabled 178 local people to participate in the production of the show in the first series and so far, 181 people in the second series – these included the production team, feature makers, feature contributors, editors, and interviewees – local artists and creatives, community activists, volunteers, service users and experts such as representatives from Local Government, GPs, faith leaders, advisors, and community champions. Our contributors have represented the diverse communities of Hackney with features and interviews covering for example Windrush events, Chinese New Year, Jewish and Muslim Festivals. We have covered a wide range of art forms from theatre to photography and music with our 78-year-old DJ playing requests from our listeners.

  • Parks, People and Nature
    Parks, People and Nature A guide to enhancing natural habitats in London’s parks and green spaces in a changing climate Natural England works for people, places and nature to conserve and enhance biodiversity, landscapes and wildlife in rural, urban, coastal and marine areas. We conserve and enhance the natural environment for its intrinsic value, iithe wellbeing and enjoyment of people, and the economic prosperity it brings. Parks, People and Nature A guide to enhancing natural habitats in London’s parks and green spaces in a changing climate Introduction My vision for London is of a green city, and a fair city, where everyone has access to a high quality green space in which wildlife can be encountered close to where they live and work. London has some of the Ýnest parks of any capital city in the world. Yet it also has some areas lacking in green space, and many more where the quality of the green spaces could be better. This booklet provides a valuable practical guide on how to improve access to nature in parks and green spaces, complimenting my London Plan Implementation Report on Improving LondonersÔ access to nature. Appropriate design and management of our parks and green spaces will be one of the key challenges that will enable the City to adapt to climate change. Park managers need to be working now to plant the trees that will provide shade for a much warmer city in the 2080s. We also need to start thinking now how our parks can help in addressing broader environmental challenges such as Þood risk management.

But our new research shows that many of London’s parks, and our enjoyment of them, are marred by traffic noise. Though 44% of the 885 London parks we surveyed are completely free from the sound of traffic, almost a third (29%) are severely impacted by noise from nearby roads.
