Cornmill Gardens is a new open space for Lewisham Town Centre, providing residents access to the River Ravensborne, which has been released from its concrete walls. The new river banks have been planted with a selection of native plans and trees, and there are signs of naturally occurring native plants establishing themselves.
Already breeding families of mallards and moorhens have made their homes along this stretch of the river. Situated just off Loampit Vale, this is the first of three new open spaces planned for Lewisham Town Centre. The project has been jointly funded through the Urban Renaissance in Lewisham Programme and Lewisham Council.
