It’s good to give credit where’s it’s due, so here’s a nod to the appropriate parties in Redbridge and its contractors who planted the areas near the Duke earlier this year, after a long-awaited reconfiguration to the troublesome junction. It looks right smart.
And that’s saying nothing of the week -in, week-out tending conducted on dozens of other green spots around Wanstead by our favourite group of people, the Wanstead Community Gardeners. One of their most recent projects has been the gardens at the Methodist Church on Hermon Hill, which is shortly to be the site of many Fringe events at the Wanstead Curtain.

Thank you Wanstead Gardeners. You keep Wanstead looking beautifully in bloom.
