London Square and One Housing have been appointed to work with the Council to deliver the regeneration of three sites near Lea Bridge Station.

The aim is to provide new green open space, a Cultural Hub, workspace for local businesses and homes for local people including homes suitable for elderly people or people with disabilities.

Improvements to the Lea Bridge Station entrance are an integral part of the scheme.

The Council is working with Network Rail and Greater Anglia on proposals for a relocated Lea Bridge Station entrance as part of the Lea Bridge regeneration work.

The improved entrance will create a better link from Lea Bridge Road onto the station platforms to make it easier for users to reach the platforms and also provide new amenities including better cycle storage at the station.

Within the new station entrance, a Feature Wall is to be provided.

This wall will evoke the history, communities, cultures and identities of the local area, helping to contextualise the building.

For instance, the water industry of the local area or the pattern work of William Morris whom was a resident of nearby Walthamstow could be celebrated.

The wall could also celebrate the innovations of the historic Lea Bridge Station, a building purported to have been the first over-rail station building.

The wall presents an opportunity to collaborate with the local community, and local artists, so that the community can project their stories onto the walls of the station.
