Limehouse Cut East London, London £950,000 Share of Freehold Limehouse Cut Tis beautifully proportioned penthouse apartment on Morris Road has been elegantly refurbished to create a bright and expansive living space, surrounded on two sides by an impressive private roof terrace. Te apartment is located in one of the East End’s original warehouse conversions, formerly the old Spratt’s dog biscuit factory, which was converted by a consortium of artists in the 1980s and sold as shells to painters and sculptors, many of whom still live and work in the building today. Te Tour Situated on the top foor, with wonderful views of the London skyline, the apartment is accessed through a gated courtyard that contains demised parking for residents. Tis building also has a large communal roof garden. Tere is lift access to all foors. +44 (0)20 3795 5920 themodernhouse.com [email protected] Limehouse Cut Te apartment has a fantastic sense of volume owing to an exposed double-height pitched roof, punctured with high- level windows that bathe the space in light. Te main living areas are positioned on the lower level, while a generous mezzanine provides a dramatic space for the bedroom that has access to a southeast-facing balcony. A half-level up is a smaller, contained space, which can be used as a second bedroom, study or dressing room. Adjoining the main reception room is a cleverly designed conservatory that the current owner uses as a ceramics studio. Te glazed roof maximises the intake of natural light and provides an additional space that can be contained from the otherwise open-plan living arrangement. Te Area Te apartment is situated on the Limehouse Cut Canal in a vibrant area undergoing major redevelopment. Recently redeveloped Bartlett Park is close by, with grass sports pitches and a wildfower bank. Within 10 minutes’ walk are Chrisp Street Market, designed by Frederick Gibberd and built as part of the 1951 Festival of Britain, and the recently renovated, Grade II-listed Poplar Baths & Leisure Centre. Te canal path runs to Limehouse Marina in one direction and Bromley by Bow and the historic Tree Mills Island in the other. Tere are plenty of local parks and green spaces in the area, with Mile End and Victoria Park a short walk away. Te shops and restaurants of Canary Wharf are nearby and can be reached on foot or by DLR from Langdon Park. Te Jubilee Line and London Overground can be accessed at Canary Wharf, for quick journeys into central London, Stratford and Shoreditch.

  • The Navigation of the River Lee (1190 – 1790)
    Edmonton Hundred Historical Society Occasional Paper New Series No. 36 by J.G.L.Burnby and M.Parker. Published 1978 Added to the site by kind permission of Mr Michael Parker THE NAVIGATION OF THE RIVER LEE (1190 – 1790) PREFACE As the men of the river frequently pointed out the Lee is one of the "great rivers of the realm", and it is only fitting that its history should be traced; indeed it is surprising that the task has not been carried out far earlier than this. Regretfully the story of its busiest period in the days of post-canalisation has had to be left to another, later Occasional Paper. The spelling of the name of the river has varied over the centuries. In 1190 it was referred to as "the water of Lin", in the fourteenth century as "La Leye", the cartographer Saxton seems to have been the first to introduce "Lea" to map-makers in 1576, in the eighteenth century it was not infrequently called the "Ware River" but the commonest spelling would seem to be "Lee" and it is to this which we have decided to adhere. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS We would like to thank the London Borough of Haringey Libraries panel for their financial assistance in the publication of this paper. Our gratitude also goes to the Marquess of Salisbury for granting permission to reproduce the maps held in the Hatfield House Collection. A number of people have most generously helped us in the production of this paper. Mrs.H.Baker has with her usual expertise drawn the map of the lower reaches of the river, and Mr.Neil Clements is responsible for the charming reproductions of the prints of the Powder Mill at Waltham Abbey and the river at Ware.

  • FOI 9311 Parks in LB Tower Hamlets and List of Parks by Size Since 1938
    FOI 9311 Parks created since 1938 Could you please supply a list of all open spaces created from January 1938 to December 2012. Please supply the area of each new open space when created History of parks and open spaces in Tower Hamlets, and their heritage significance The History of Parks and Open Space in Tower Hamlets The parks and open spaces of Tower Hamlets have come about through a variety of processes. Some public open spaces were the result of deliberate design or policy, while others are the result of historic accident or expedience. There were broadly three periods during which public open space was created in Tower Hamlets. These moves were primarily to benefit people, rather than improve land or rental values. The first was the deliberate creation of Victoria Park in the mid 19 th century, the late 19 th century saw the conversion of churchyards to public gardens and the most recent was in the mid 20 th century after World War 2. Various open spaces are the result of late 18 th and 19 th century urban design, being planned formal gardens set in London Squares. As such they are protected by the London Squares Preservation Act, 1931. These sites include Trinity Square Gardens , Arbour Square , Albert Gardens and the little known Oval in Bethnal Green. See full list of protected London Squares below. Many churchyards, particularly in the west of borough became public open spaces managed by the local authority. Having been closed to further burial use because they were overflowing, they were converted in the second half of the 19 th century into public gardens.
